Description

 Oriental heavy plate. Blue & white with hallmark on back,
writing and people front, outside setting.  My opinion, made as
 show plate, not for food. Would like ballpark figure for worth.
 Really would like to know what it says.  Your Bounty

Sometimes a visit to a Chinese restaurant can get you a translation. May be a poem or short story.

Does not look too awful old and probably has just decorative value and there are hundreds of decorator items at Pier 1 etc........
