My Russian plate. Picked it up at a local street sale for $5.

Thanks Marguerite. I love it to and it goes well w my other plates :)

You know Marguerite, I'm not sure...it's shiny so I would assume so. Why do you ask?

Yes, it is abnormally lightweight for a plate it's size. That was the first thing I noticed when I picked up. From the sound of it, maybe my $5 was a good deal. I think so, because I like it regardless of it's monetary value :) There is a tiny little chip in the paint and looks like it was made from terra cotta or some sort of orange-ish clay...
