    I recently snatched this up from a seller online, and am fascinated with the similarities to Joan Miro / Picasso's work. There is no marker's mark or artist's signature- only a poetic incised message on the backside. The back of the plate is marked SIEMPRE Y TUS OJOS NO SON MIO, which translates into "AS LONG AS YOUR EYES ARE NOT MINE". I have spent hours researching Mid Century Surrealist vessels and the natural handwriting of the masters, but simply cannot make a connection without the signature. Maybe this is just the work of an amazingly talented unknown?

    Any insight or recommendations on where else to research appreciated! Thanks in advance!

      Welcome to CW! Too bad they didn't also sign it while they were at it!
