It is tin-glazed and it might be English, but it is really hard to be sure unless you can find a good reference piece to compare. I would like to see a picture of the whole thing please.

I'm not familiar with the pattern at all, but there are vast numbers of different patterns around, most unrecorded and unattributed. It looks like an 18th century piece and probably English or Dutch. The stilt marks on the back are thought to be more often an indication of English origin.

I`m sure I have seen something similar before-is it not Irish?
