The clay dish was first given a white tin glaze and then hand painted in cobalt blue (Bleu de Fès) swirls and stripes.  Painted arabesque designs and a pair of applied red teardrop cabochons were then surrounded with beaded silver alloy overlays. The rim of the dish is overlaid, as the edge, which has protected it from chips over the last 125 years or so. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eSilver filigreed ceramics became very popular in Morocco from around 1895 into the 1920's, declining in use by the 1930's. The overlay on this dish is extensive, which, along with the heavy clay, accounts for its weight of nearly 1 1\/2 pounds, surprising for a dish 7 inches in diameter and an inch high. There are some chips on the underside, typical with this soft clay, but the dish and its decorations are in very good condition. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eAntique Moroccan pottery of this age and caliber is uncommon. It's a highly decorative find and a wonderful addition to any pottery collection. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e© \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/PrimpingYourHome.com\"\u003ePrimpingYourHome.com\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003ePYH 5705\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Primping Your Home Antiques \u0026 Vintage Home Decor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47834030866619,"sku":"5705","price":195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/9101\/7147\/files\/ChatGPT_Image_Mar_29_2026_03_37_05_PM.png?v=1779940972","url":"https:\/\/www.primpingyourhome.com\/products\/antique-moroccan-pottery-dish-with-cabochons","provider":"Primping Your Home Antiques \u0026 Vintage Home Decor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
