This looks to me to be Delft from the 18th century, Probably the second half. Since your dish is not marked, but such dishes can be attributed to the Porcelyne schotel (1750-1763) or possibly also to van Duijn ( Porceleyne schotel 1763-1800 ). Knowing that a lot of pottery was not marked this may be the origin. Presumably, experts can provide more clarity on this.

Dit lijkt mij Delft uit de 18de eeuw, waarschijnlijk tweede helft. Daar uw schotel niet gemerkt is doch dergelijke schotels toe te wijzen zijn aan de   Porcelyne schotel (1750-1763 ) of mogelijks ook toe te schrijven aan van Duijn ( Porceleyne schotel 1763-1800 ). Wetende dat veel aardewerk niet werd gemerkt is dit mogelijks de afkomst. Vermoedelijk kunnen experts hier meer duidelijkheid in verstrekken.

Verdict:

  • Delftware

Analysis:

  • Delftware, made between 1620 – 1850 Only tin-glazed earthenware made in Delft between 1620 - 1850 is referred to as traditional Delftware. Read more
  • Tin-glazed earthenware Earthenware with a glaze to which tin oxide has been added to make it opaque white. Delftware produced before 1850 is always covered with a tin glaze. Read more
  • Hand-painted An important characteristic of authentic Delftware is that it is hand-painted. Printing techniques do not occur on this earthenware. Read more
  • Unmarked An unmarked object does not necessarily mean that it is not Delftware. Only about 1/3 of all Delftware is marked. Read more
  • Can not be determined based on current information To properly assess this object, more information or more or better photos are needed.

Seems to me to indeed be an 18th century Delft plate, but I ticked the box ‘not entirely sure’ due to the harshness of the glaze on the reverse. Sometimes we cannot give a definite answer simply from photos.
