      Hi there LELETTE !!!

      The piece is Fabulous !!!

      The raised mark has the letters J D with a B beneath I believe.
      Julius Dressler - Bohemia or Biela.

      "In 1888, Julius Dressler founded a pottery factory in Biela, Bohemia specializing in majolica. Little is known of Dressler after 1910, although it appears the factory remained in existence until 1945."

      Hello there,

      Thank you so much for the information vetraio50.

      Wowza - What an incredible piece - simply stunning. Maybe it's the classic black, gold and white together, but be still my heart! I've pasted a little article on Dressler below, but this also has some examples of his mark, which I found so difficult to read from the above two articles. Also, if you scroll right down to the very last part of the page, there is a vase with the same pattern and colours as Lelette's.

      I have a question, can you separate the top tray from the bottom part, making an oval dish?
