    This I think is a toast rack with a jam/marmalade and butterdish in one piece, decorated in a cream colour with pinky mauve flowers & a gold rim all round , in an unusual shape !! Looks a bit like an old paddle steam boat;-) its nearly 6" x 4 1/2" x3" high in A1 condition never seen one before , it is marked on the base with aparently quite a rare mark - THE PHAROH'S BOAT- which was applied to ware exclusively for Grays Pottery- it can be found on matt glazed ware supplied by Kirklands of Etruria or Whieldon ware from Winkle & Co/Ridgways of Shelton... (just copied that) HA!!
    The mark actually reads the PHAROH'S boat picture -, GRAYS POTTERY, STOKE ON TRENT, ENGLAND.
    as far as age I dont have a clue 30s / 50s / 70s its a great deco/retro piece and very pretty in unused condition..
    info welcome
