What kind of dish is this?

This is a random little dish we found in some of my Mother-in-Law's stuff. I'm curious about whether it was just for decoration, or did it have a specific use for serving? And, any info on the maker, based on this mark on the bottom? Unfortunately it wasn't stamped very well, it's pretty blury......

Thanks for any info! It measures 6 1/4 in X 4 1/4 in X 1 1/4 in.

 

I think it's Leuchtenburg, Germany.

 

It looks like a small relish for pickles or olives. It's a fairly common shape found in patterns from lots of china makers. But people now would likely use to hold small "stuff".
