Small metal/enamel oriental dish - any thoughts?

Hi, I just realised it’s three years since I was last here . Unfortunately life has been getting in the way. But today I managed a trip to the charity shops and picked up this small dish for very little. I know nothing about this kind of thing, so… is it worth hanging onto or should I just take it back?!

Measures about 10cm across. I think the base mark is qianlong (assuming later)? It’s metal so has some weight, and enamel decoration. Some of the ‘paint’ feels like it’s on top of the enamel. Beaten up around the edges with lots of wear, but I like the image in the middle .

 

Aww! Me, too!

 

I guess many of us have been affected by the pandemic, and then some {hug}. I’m loving being able to visit the charity shops again, as well as offload some of my own stuff!

 

I don't think terribly old and the damage negates what little value it would have.

 

Oh well.. thanks! I thought as much. It’ll be going back there then!

 

Welcome back!!

 

Aww thank you! It’s great to see so many familiar names. I’ve been browsing the forums .

 

Welcome back.
