This plate has enamelled people on it with similar faces and technique to my very large 'etruscan' vase - possibly from the same factory.
The base of the plate is polished shiny and it has what appears to be a polished pontil mark.

Just adding for comparison in type of finish and style of enamelled design.

It's a completely different base finish to my plate, my plate having a flat base and completely matt finish done in a similar/same way that the base of an Hyalith bowl I own.

This plate is  milchglas and has the same base finish as my plate:
