There looks like it was signed but has come off in time I think it’s only small 8cm across. Sorry to be vague!

    Some type of a composite material I would think. Possibly a souvenir item? Identification will be difficult.

    It looks somewhat similar to a small ceramic trinket jar that one of my uncles brought back from Florence ("Firenze"), Italy, after WWII:

    Thanks for your replies! Yes it does look similar doesn’t it? It’s had a few years on it, I magpied it at a charity shop……(where else) I won’t clean it as it would probably dissolve…
