I recently purchased this wonderful enamelware dish online. (I am using the seller's pics with her permission, because I can't photograph as clearly as she can...)
It is handpainted, unmarked and unsigned. It measures 20cm in diameter.
I love the scalloped edges!
Any info on where, when, who would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Spunkysmom and Cuvacmom!
I've been looking around on the www and finally found this is an iranian mina-kari enamel plate.
Woo-hooo!!

So after paying 13€, postage included, I think I did good! :)
