Copper Enameled Dish - Black Background with Flower - 9.5 cm Vintage
Small decorative copper dish with enamelled floral decoration on a deep black ground.
The floral motifs are combined with a delicate geometric line pattern in the background. The copper-coloured lines are engraved into the base, giving the design a subtle outline. The combination of green, red, and white against the dark field creates a striking contrast.
The reverse is finished in blue enamel with simple floral lines.
The top is in good condition. There is a dent with enamel damage on the underside; this is not visible from above but is reflected in the price.
