I love those relish trays too. They are hard to find and most collectors dont realizes they came in slightly different sizes depending on the day they were made. With clay, depending on the temperature it will dry differently. So one day the walls of each piece maybe a bit more thick then the next day. This is why sometimes you see them with all the inserts not so tightly together. It best just to buy a complete one, and not try to piece it together.
