Can anyone identify the makers mark on this huge Italiam ceramic (majolica) platter? The platter measures 20 3/4" X 13 1/4" . There is a under the rim chip, under the glaze, which is only visible when turned over. Also a small hairline fracture which does not appear to run through the entire thickness of the platter. Fantastic detail and coloring on the raised embossed fruits. Overlapping CR makers mark on the bottom of the platter. Trying to determine age and maker. Any info would be greatly appreciated!
I had exact platter years ago when I had a antique shop . I thought it was beautiful but it never sold and wound up in a yard sale for 1.00 . I guess some people didn't see what I see . I love it !!
