1950 REED & BARTON KING FRANCIS CASSEROLE’S CERAMIC INSERT REPLACEMENT 2 QT. The Reed & Barton story began in 1824, when Isaac Babbitt created a new metal alloy – “Britannia metal” – in his Taunton, Massachusetts pewter shop. Babbitt joined forces with craftsmen Henry G. Reed and Charles E. Barton to produce this innovative, higher quality pewter ware. When Babbitt encountered financial difficulties, Reed & Barton offered to take control and began manufacturing products under their own names. The fledgling company’s goods reflected uncompromising standards of excellence, starting with its initial silverplate products and extending to the exquisite sterling silver creations that resulted from the silver discoveries of the late 1800s. Is one of the most sought after designs ever created by the original Reed & Barton company. Riginal ceramic insert replacement for the covered casserole dish in excellent condition with no crazing, cracks, chips, fissures, or repairs.
