Message Dave, your dish looks and sounds like an old European soft-paste stoneware piece with a Chinoiserie transfer motif. The terra cotta color you describe sounds like Delft clay, while the general appearance of the figures reminds me a bit of English New Hall wares, albeit a bit busier than I'm used to seeing. Without a mark or precise pattern match, identification of the maker may be a tough row to hoe, since European makers tended to copy each other freely before copyright laws came about.
