Description:
- Circular dish, of good quality. It is made of enamelled earthenware in beige, with decoration of metallic reflections of acceptable quality, made in Manises (Valencia - Spain).
- The dish has a medium thickness, with a small sound when touched. The beige enamel has an important thickness, which gives the dish a great quality.
- On the upper face, the decoration of metallic reflections forms a geometrical drawing, with an incipient lump.
- On the underside, the dish has no pattern of any kind, only a brown stripe and the maker's signature, and it is enamelled. It does not have the three marks of the firing support. It has three holes for hanging on the wall.
- We think that this dish has three cooking phases. A first phase in which the virgin earthenware is placed in the kiln. In a second phase the dish is fired with the application of the yellowish beige glaze. And a third phase in which the dish is fired again with the application of the metallic lustre paint.
- All these characteristics give the dish a very interesting patina, with a very attractive and high quality appearance.
