CZECH REPUBLIC Oval Dish
I cannot identify the pottery (backstamp is unknown)
Made in Czech Republic
Circa 1950's ~ 1960's
Design #810
Extensive gold gilding, both the top rim, side handles and decorative flowers with foliage - all is gold, no painted colouring
Clean simple design
NO cracks or flea bites
NO discolouration
NO crazing
Gold gilding is generally in good condition, decorative work is fine, side handles are fine but there is light wear to the top rim edge (where the rim has been used to hold the dish instead of the handles.
Measurement: 250mm length x 140mm wide x 40mm deep
NOTE: We always used this piece with cold items i.e most often a sweets dish. We were always a bit worried about the gold gilding inside the dish becoming damaged from hot items (vegetables etc) so it was never used with anything hot.
