Do you recall Sunday mornings at your grandparents’ home when breakfast was a big meal and the toast was cut into fancy shapes? Picture the porcelain toast rack placed right in the center of the table, each compartment containing a warm slice of toast with steam coming off it. It was not merely functional; it was an inherent aspect of the fun and traditions of those slow family dinners. 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. Every rack was intended to hold the toast in an upright position, so that steam could escape and the toast would not go soggy; this was a practical solution that also suited the fussy table settings of the time.
