7 inches high as the book says,no nibbles or chips(did they ever produce plain circular trays about 5 ins across?)

Well done, not a common sight.

Not sure what you mean by 'plain' circular trays - plain isn't a description I'd apply to Britannia! But no, I don't know of any.

Well done!   :hiclp:

I was amazed how heavy Britannia pieces are for their size! My creamer is clear with white enamel in the patterning.

Tray looks like an undecorated blank perhaps?
