This is a ruby red "fruit" decorative plate, 41.5cm radius and 6.5cm tall. It has a "texture" in the glass, as well as bubbles and imperfections. It weights about 920 grams. The thickness of the glass is about 5mm on the outermost rim, and about 2.5-3mm inside. You can see 2 small chips on the bottom. And that really is nothing short of a miracle, since it survived many decades among some of the strongest earthquakes in the world, in Chile - including a 8.8 magnitude earthquake in 2010.

I got this as a gift from my mother, after her mother, my grandmother, passed away in 2012. My grandmother inherited this from her mother-in-law (my [step]great-grandmother). She was an Italian woman who married my widowed English great-grandfather, and they (including 2 children who were from my great-grandfather's first marriage) migrated to Chile at some point before or around 1930. It's my understanding this piece came from Italy, or England - Europe. I imagine it could've been a wedding gift. Unfortunately, since my grandmother's passing I have no way to verify the story, but this is what my mother, uncle and aunt have told me.
