Aegean Fish

This Poole Aegean sweet dish came from Lincoln Antiques Fair, a couple of months ago.  I'll be off to that fair again next week, so its high time I posted a photo of this.  As the figurative Aegean patterns go , I think the fish have a bit more appeal, than the boats at least, and the other animals and landscapes that decorate Aegean plates are much less common and probably out of my price range. 
It's shape number 361, 7 inches long, decorated by Carolyn Wills using the silhouette technique.  Carolyn worked at Poole from 1972 until 1979, her sisters (i think) Julia and Laura also Decorated Aegean ware at Poole.
