Description
I got this peacock bowl at a thrift store for $6 but saw the same bowl for sale on ebay for about $200. The seller claims it is from around the 1920s (but did not know of any other details), which could make sense except most pieces from the 20s were marked. I have been doing a lot of research about majolica and have discovered that many pieces were not marked and that often means they were older. The interior is glazed and it does not look very modern to me, but I really have no experience and would not know what to look for. Does anyone recognize this piece or can anyone give me an approximate date or country of origin as well as value?
