Neoclassical Greek Style Hand-Painted Porcelain Serving Tray featuring Artemis

An elegant vintage porcelain handled serving tray or centerpiece bowl featuring a deep black cobalt or obsidian glaze accented with 24-karat gold leaf. The central tondo depicts a classical scene of the goddess Artemis with her hunting bow, a companion, a hunting hound, and a stag, meticulously rendered in gold line work. This central motif is enclosed by a traditional Greek Key (Meander) border in gold. The tray features an irregular, scalloped rim with integrated handles, heavily gilded with floral and foliate flourishes. Physically, the item appears to be of mid-20th-century Greek manufacture, likely from a known workshop such as Spyropoulos or Keramikos, specializing in 'Hand Made in Greece' 24K gold exports. The glaze is high-gloss and reflective, showing minor surface scratches consistent with careful use and age. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant repairs, though some slight rubbing to the gold on the handles is a common vintage characteristic. The craftsmanship is high, evidenced by the fine line detailing in the central mythological illustration and the even application of the heavy gold gilding on the scalloped edges.
