Hi Keith -
Have you tried holding it real close under a light - and snapping a pic (no flash) with the camera.  Sometimes a MARK will show up when real close to a light, and the Camera sometimes sees the shadows of marks that we (our naked eye) can't.

I would try that to see if anything might *pop* up when there is a heavy glaze on the bottom...

Give it a try....and snap a few pics with the camera, and then look at the pics because the camera might pic up some writing underneath when close to a light.

Worth a shot...

Gorgeous, is it painted or etched out to reveal the layer underneath?

Whilst looking through Miller's Pottery (Gordon Lang), on pages 96/97 (if anyone has a copy and wants to check), there are some tiles and a plate with what looks like similar style of decoration. They are described as tin glazed Dutch. The ones shown are early 17th C which yours probably isn't, but it might be worth exploring Dutch tin glaze anyhow.

I believe this is most likely K?tahya (Turkey) although late Iznik is a remote possibility. The pattern is known as Saz from the name of the plant with that highly serrated leaf.
However I'm not an expert and I suggest you google around those names yourself and see what you come up with.
