Unusual, Leaf Design Ice Cream Mould

Code: J22487

A nineteenth century, copper ice cream bombe mould with an unusual, stylised leaf design to the sides. The lid is marked “HARROD’S STORES LTD”  and they would have been the retailers of this piece. The mould is well made, from a heavy gauge of copper, and it dates from c.1890. This mould would be lined with ice cream and then filled with a fruit or chocolate sauce. The sauce would then be covered with more ice cream and, when taken to the table and cut into, the sauce would explode out from the bombe. The small brass foot is unscrewed to allow the ice cream to be removed from the mould more easily. The mould is in excellent condition and the tinning to the interior is still in very good, bright, usable condition.

Dimensions: Height 12.2cm. Diameter 11.4cm.
