    No this isn't a pizza. Although it does look like one in the small pictures. This mid-century copper and glass enameled plate is by Bovano of Cheshire CT. They've been in business since 1952 and still produce a variety of decorative enameled objects. -Mike-

      I keep picking these up too! I've got a dozen or so. Keeping some, flipping others. Hard to find them without damage.
