Would like to reseach it it you have more information as have never seen one like it. Picture is confusing, at least to me, is it surounded by a fancy table cloth. Dave Ok now seen your other picture of the dish that is footed, Maker Mark? < Message edited by David E -- 11/6/2004 8:42:18 AM > (in reply to Gigster) Post #: 2

My original post about this piece was on 11/1 under the same title. Still new at this and wasn't sure how to get the pictures included, so posted three times to get three pics (note the second post/pic on 11/2). I've included the original pic again. HOpe this helps!

Wife says it's nothing;I say its worth lookin' at. Here t'is. Gtta' look close; looks like a birds head with a wing on the right. Attachment (1) (in reply to David E) Post #: 4

A lot of ceramic that is not marked you can generally look and get an idea where it was made, but can't put a finger on that one. By looking at a picture and not holding and looking at it with a magnifying glass, it's hard to say, but yours looks more transfer printed than hand painted or maybe both. The scrolling looks almost like pewter, but I had a tea set from Bavaira that looks the same and it was silver(all over, nothing else) Anyway either way it is a nice bowl.
