Charming Passover plate is artistically engraved in an acid-etched form of artwork displaying the scene of Moses and the Jewish people standing on the other side of the red sea after the Egyptians had been defeated and swallowed by the sea with their spears poking through the wave crests. 

Surrounding the center display are interwoven foliage, vines and grape clusters. Vines and grape clusters separate the order of the Seder written around the center design on the inner bowl.

Around the outer edge of the bowl is a written phrase from the Haggadah " We were slaves to Pharaoh in Egypt and Our G-d freed us  with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm" written in Hebrew, topped by an arched designed border along the open mouth lip of the plate.

Signed E. Grüne- Augsburg at the bottom edge of plate
