Hi, Lucy! For some reason this dish has a 30s look to me, although I suppose it could be 50s. No other helpful suggestions, though. That's a very pretty yellow.~Adele

Looks like a candy dish of some kind, maybe a candy dish Frank Lloyd Wright might have had in his living room perhaps.

I had a "double" bowl similar to this a long time ago and for some reason seem to remember it as being Viking Glass..you might want to check it out. Good Luck

I thought this screamed Czech. I took a look at my Czech glass book and sure enough, they are very fond of combining yellow with a black rim and black base. The forms also tend to take a fluid shape. A book value would be $50 to $75.
That being said, unless you have a sticker, mark or picture in a reliable book, there's no way to know for sure.
