In Veldhoven we have a permanent flea market, they call it a kringloopwinkel. I used to go there quite often, it is a kind of sport to find something nice and cheap. I only bought this plate, for one euro, for a friend of mine who wants to make an artwork out of fake Delft-blue china,. When I came home, I first found out the plate was made by hand. Then, it was made in Belgium, in the Faïencerie de Nimy, a factory from witch they destroyed everthing in WO II. Mouzon, 1851-1890. So, this tray is at least 125 years old, and 100% ib good condition.. How much it is worth, now? In any case more than one euro..
