Manning Bowman Art Deco White Chrome and Porcelain Lidded Casserole

Description

Manning Bowman Lidded Casserole Bowl with Chrome Frame and Lid in classic Art Deco styling, c. 1935.
No chips, cracks or crazing. The chrome has scratches underneath the bowl (which you cannot see unless you remove the bowl from its frame), and also on the lid. Lid scratches are highlighted in last photo. It is possible these could be buffed out or lessened; I have not tried.
Bowl has a few stray dark spots around rim and on outside of bowl; see third-to-last photo for example. These seem integral and not surface, so probably manufacturing artifacts. There are also some light utensil scratches on bottom inside of bowl from use. No staining or discoloration.
Piece measures about one foot across the top, and 4 inches high.
Not many of these old pieces around any more!
