      The bottom of the piece will show if it's pressed or hand done. Very, very involved pattern.
    2. toracat toracat, 10 years ago
      I will take photo of backside!
    3. toracat toracat, 10 years ago
      I think it is hand done as the pattern is so different from preceding ones
    4. toracat toracat, 10 years ago
      Maybe someone staying up all night doing uppers or amphetamines did this!! Intense!!

      Not magnetic

      You should be able to see hammer marks, surely. I just see some ridges from turning?

      Hi Kevin, this is the edge of this? The patterns do not repeat perfectly, they are all different a little?
    8. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      Not sure, mate. Perhaps someone else will venture a thought or two? You are up late!
    9. toracat toracat, 10 years ago
      I am up late, I have pain in my legs, so I stay up late always.
    10. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      I hope you get some sleep soon mate!

      Hiya Torakitty....my guess...I think this is hand carved Chinese. Americans always seem to have the two layer (stepped) plates, it doesn't give me an India or Persia vibe because of the pattern...that's how I'd start tracking but...I don't know...

      Can't sleep? Rock a by Kitty on the tree tops, when the wind blows the kitty will rock...
