My mom bought this in a trading post/everything shop..in the late 50s early60s
we were told that it was a reproduction....about 15 yrs. ago.
it is a tray..silver and copper inlay...I think it is made of brass. it is approx. 13" around.

Hey- my daughters have recently had project in the egyptian (sp) content-have you researched any of the markings? wendy best of luck to you

my guess is that your plate is a souviner plate from the 1920's. after tuts tomb was discovered in 1922 an exibition was brought to the usa. this sparked great interest in tut and egyption artifacts. many items like yours were sold in the usa at that time.

it is a wonderfull plate and appears to be in good condition for its age. i am sure it is worth something . i am no expert in appraising these types of items . im sure with a little work you could find something simular to it on ebay or the web. nice piece , no doubt it is worth more now than when your mother paid in the 50's.
