Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be a japanese Arita crackle glaze brown rim dish decorated with ducks swimming in a pond, water lily and stylized flowers, printed and painted in enamel colours. Production date should be mid 20th century. It is a highly decorative plate, but not very old. The estimate is based on similar plates offered or sold at auction.
