I believe this item was given as a gift to my great-grandmother. I don't know who gave it to her or where it came from.

This piece is a short, footed bowl with little holes in the bottom of it. Apparently, it wasn't used to hold liquids. The little ball feet have gold paint on the outsides of them but it is very lightly worn. The painted decorations on the inside are crisp and clear and there is no crazing on the piece anywhere that I can see.

The makers mark says that it is a hand painted Nippon. The decoration on the inside of the bowl supports the hand painted part as the gold bands have pearling painted into them. Little dots of gold paint run through them and they all are present.

I did some research on it and it looks almost identical to a FREDERICK DAVIS FLOWER BROOCH but it is not signed on the back.
