Do you recall Sunday mornings at your grandparents’ home when breakfast was a big meal and the toast was cut into fancy shapes?

These porcelain toast racks of yesteryears not only kept our bread but also a piece of history in their beautiful designs.
Made from porcelain these toast racks were a common item on many tables in the Victorian age and the following years. They were not only practical objects but also decorative, sometimes featuring hand-painted patterns or gold details that would sparkle in the light.
