For your consideration is an antique Sheffield clam shell dish with shells for the feet.  The marks on this piece are John Parsons (crossed key) dating from 1784 - 1836 and the leopard head meaing that is from London Town in England.  The piece is 9 1/2" wide and 10" in length, 1 1/4" in height.  Very pretty old piece.
