Beautiful aesthetic vintage china dish in the Alexandria pattern, nice old bee skep mark. This is very shabby, stained, crazed, cracked and chipped!

I'm not having much luck finding a illustration of this piece with a lid, though I'd guess it had one originally. Also, no insert here, so I'm not entirely sure what this would have held... comb honey? butter? cheese? With the bee hive mark, I think maybe a specialty piece for honey.

It would work nicely for flowers or greenery (tiny palms or ferns?) or even a moss garden. It measures about 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" inside dish area, 2 1/2" deep, 6 3/4" across the handles.
