    Any hope on the maker of this vintage 11" enamel tray? The blue backing is kind of unique. Unsigned.

    One other question, is there any word for the crazing like condition in one spot on the edge (see enlarged photo, last). Smooth to the touch, seems to be some kind of effect underneath the enamel work.

    thanks.

    It could be a good hobbyist, but it could be Bovano too or someone similar. http://www.bovano.com/

    The lines are stress cracks - someone tried bending the dish in ways it didn't want to go.

    Thanks. I usually don't see these in this longer shape, it has a cool look. Bovano did do some of the longer trays, so maybe that is a match.
