Title
English: Tintype of woman with floral lace wrap, circa 1870-1874
Description
English:

Unstandardized plate size tintype on chocolate plate. Hand-tinted "rouge" on cheeks. Mounted in pale pink paper picture envelope with top-hinged seal-flap with rectangular window (rounded corners) and decorated with printed beige lines surrounding window. PH Coll 500.TN11

The chocolate plate emerged on the tintype scene in June of 1869 in Worcester, Massachusetts under the manufacturing of Phoenix/Phoenix Plate Company. An independent U.S. patent was issued in March of 1870 for the production of chocolate plates, in which the iron plate was coated with an India red and linseed oil varnish. Chocolate plates were highly successful, as they were heralded to provide "a more lifelike appearance" to flesh and provide "more delicate shading" to drapery
