<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Walter Del Pellegrino, post: 350280, member: 90&quot;]The style and decoration indicates that your dish was most likely produced in, or near, Bassano, Italy. The term “Hand Painted” came into use after World War II (1945) and became popular in the 1950’s. It was used as an advertising gimmick claiming that&nbsp; “Hand Painted” was more valuable than commercially mass produced items. Before the War virtually all Italian pottery was hand painted. </p><p>Your plate holds very little interest to collectors.It is, however, an attractive wall decoration.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
