  • N.V. Plateelfabriek Ram

De schotel is gemaakt bij N.V. Plateelbakkerij Ram in Arnhem. Deze aardewerkfabriek werd in 1921 opgericht en werd in 1969 definitief gesloten. Uw schotel dateert waarschijnlijk na 1945. De schildersinitialen (als ze dat zijn) lees ik als: "JG" of "GJ", maar ik weet niet naar wie ze verwijzen.
