    billyd3us Thanks All my Friends

    This bowl or whatever it is was at my friends thrift store on a shelf in the back room for about 8 years, maybe longer. I started going there 8 years ago when I moved to my town. My friend was doing doing some major cleaning last week and was about to throw this out, of course I said, I'll take it. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a hoarder, well kinda a little.
    Anyone know where this was made or how old ?

    Thank You

    None of us are, Billy.;) We just have a lot of stuff that may or may not be valuable, now, or some time in the future. A lot of stuff....

    I think your bowl/plate was made in India or Pakistan.
    One of the designs looks like a stylized Arabic script seal (a tughra), so you could class it as 'Islamic', or Indo-Persian style.

    Hi Billy,
    Here also, people are NOT spending money. I was lucky to have a couple spend 30 dollars on a wonderful very expensive solid mahogany 1850s table with bronze inlays. Back a few years I could have gotten 500 for it.
