    Hello everyone - I'm trying to find out any information regarding this souvenir hanging bowl from the Museu C Gulbenkian. I figured out the museum is in Portugal but I was unable to find out anything about the manufacturer. It's something like 5Rais. I think the style is Iznik. The bowl measures 11" across and is about 1 1/8" tall. Any help would be most appreciated. Thank you!

    The Calouste Gulbenkian Museum in Lisbon. I would think 5 Reis (5 Kings in English) was the manufacturer but can't find a ceramic company in Portugal by that name. Not sure it matters. Souvenir bowl from the Gulbenkian. Likely a copy of something in the collection. (Gulbenkian was a Turkish citizen.)
