The piece measures 13.50 inches in diameter and stands about 1 inch deep at its highest relief. It features a high-relief floral-mandala central medallion surrounded by a scalloped “petal” rim, all beautifully hand-tooled with intricate detail. The warm aged brass patina glows softly, and while there is some surface tarnish (as shown) it buff-polishes nicely, letting the tooling really pop.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\nA hanging D-ring is affixed on the back, so the piece is ready for wall display. The reverse shows traces of old backing paint\/residue, indicating export decorative use and giving the plate authentic patina and character.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\nORIGIN + ERA:\u003cbr\u003e\nWhile no maker’s mark is evident, the style and technique closely resemble Indian export brassware from the 1950s-70s — though North African or Moroccan origin cannot be fully ruled out. For accuracy, this listing uses “Likely India \/ Indian export metalware, mid-20th century.”\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\nDIMENSIONS \u0026amp; CONDITION:\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter: 13.50 inches \u003cbr\u003e\nHeight \/ depth: approximately 1 inch \u003cbr\u003e\nCondition: Excellent vintage condition.
