A superb quality mid 19th century cut glass butter dish and stand, with double layered white and blue overlay, cut-to-clear in a pattern of large circles and quatrefoil and trefoil shapes. The stand with star cut centre and the tub with raised trefoil shaped lug side handles. The domed cover is sterling silver with engraved decoration to both sides framing a pair of vacant cartouches and topped with a beautifully cast recumbent silver cow.  Both cover and cow have a full set of matching hallmarks for Sheffield 1847, makers Hawksworth, Eyre & Co.
