This is a white ironstone oval bowl or relish dish. Ironstone is a durable, heavy earthenware that was developed in England in the early 19th century as a more affordable and hardier alternative to porcelain. It was given the name "ironstone" to suggest its strength, though it does not contain iron.
This type of plain, white ironstone, often referred to as "white granite" or "white ironstone china," was especially popular in the North American market between the 1840s and the end of the 19th century. The bowl has a simple, clean, and classic design with a smooth, glazed finish.
