This rare art deco Rhead punch bowl measures about 11" in diameter and is about 5.25" tall, although in life it looks absolutely massive.

This approximately 9” d. Roseville Pottery plate is a prototype for one of the last 1954 designs to be developed before the factory suddenly closed (prior to other shapes being designed). Each Blackberry plate is unique, as you can tell by comparing the two examples I am offering for sale.
