This great dish has Vienna Secessionist and Art Nouveau styling that is just extravagant. The top of the compote has a fruit decoration with 8+1 branch scheme which leads us to believe it may be a piece of Judaica as Posen made many high quality Judaica and Hanukkah themed pieces. The base is signed Posen and also marked 800 with a crescent moon type mark. The dish probably originally had a liner but we are unsure what the intent of the piece was. 11.97 ozt
