Description

This is an oyster dish I got at an estate sale in Greenville, SC.  It is approxiamately 8.5 inches wide.  It was made in Portugal, in the city of Alcabaca( per markings on the back)It is multi c- colored with floral designs and a solid turquoise background.  I believe the artist was J. Roca or Rosa, I cant quite make it out.  It has waves around the outside edge I am assuming for decor or to keep the oysters in) Really I cant describe it better than the picture.
