Description So I actually found this item (and 3 others exactly like it) at someones 2nd hand garage sale, in miraculous condition...

I picked it up, and found the 'niderviller 1748' stamp on the bottom so i took home all 4 of them, for only $3...

the research started.. and I couldnt find ANYTHING on this particular piece.. plenty of niderviller plates, oyster plates.. but nothing on this piece??

it's a deep rectangle, about 4cm deep, heavy, with an orange glaze... each rectangle has six half spheres indented in... I originally thought perhaps an egg holder, but now i'm thinking maybe an escargot plate?

here is an image: http://img80.imageshack.us/my.php?image=photo103qu2.jpg

I really do hope some of you out there can help me, tell me exactly what it is, year of production, and the real price of such an item?

thanks so much
