    I don’t think it has much age but it’s nicely hand painted.

    The Mark appears to be Kepamica although it could be Keramica Hand Made and the I think the central word is Depose

    Probably a tourist piece But I’d be interested to know where it came from with a mixture of English French and Greek in the mark.

    Any ideas?

    Not Russian, Ukrainian or Bulgarian. The word Kepamika could be based on something Cyrillic, but not an actual word.

    Yes I did that search before I posted but this doesn’t appear to be from either the Greek or the Polish factory.

    The first word is КЕРАМІКА which means ceramics. It's in Ukrainian. I do not see clearly the central word.

    I think it’s Depose but may not be it’s very blurred.
