Larry, one can bump into quite peculiar things when dealing with base marks. Sometimes the solution to a given question is just an inch away, in this case you are looking at the "off brand" version of...

You may find it on gotheborg.com, the presented information there was again stolen from me. This has happened on other occasions (WL1895, Aerozon, etc.) so I always hold back info - I do not want to waste...

Martha, Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to you!

The mark was applied as ultra thin transfer. As is known from model toys decades later, the application can fail when the transfer flips over or tears. The result is the same as here, and the more you...

The R.C. mark is that of [b]Philipp Rosenthal & Co.[/b] (predecessor of the [i]Rosenthal AG[/i]) from Selb-Erkersreuth; it was used between 1891 and 1907. 'RACINE' was the body name (designed by silent...

No, in this case not completely undecorated as the 'Racine' series was always sold factory-decorated. Next to hobbyists (and studios) that purchased undecorated whiteware, there were many that used ready-decorated...

Manufacturer was the [b]Schramberger Majolika-Fabrik[/b] from the town of [i]Schramberg[/i] in Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany. Design 'Gobelin 4' was created by [i]Eva Zeisel[/i]. US distributor in your case...

That's the [i]Flambeau[/i] torch, trademark of the undocumented New York importer/distributor [i]L.D.B.&Co.[/i] who had items decorated by various companies in Limoges. These items are often dubbed...

[b]Heinrich & Co.[/b] merely named the body forms. They used numbers for the patterns and left naming to importers and retailers. Good example is the well-known body form [i]'Grazie'[/i], which was available...

[quote]Interesting Chris !! Didn`t know all that !![/quote] Ah, the "name game" of German makers could fill a book of its own. Take the [i]Edelstein[/i] factory for example which indeed actually named...

Out of my area but that appears to be British [b]Wedgwood[/b], "Indian" being the series/pattern name.

I normally never comment on value but in this case the original manufacturer has absolutely nothing to do with any kind of evaluation as the item was obviously (re)decorated by a hobbyist or porcelain...

Well, I was on vacation in Spain three or four times and a bit of the lingo stuck. As for the squiggles ... una cerveza, por favor! ... I was sitting here with a beer and looked at the picture through...

My best guess? "Sandia" is spanish for "Watermelon" (plate motif). Front shows the artist's signature, "MARCO" ('G' or 'D') above 'VII." - as in " '07 " = 2007. Addition appears to be the item or stock...

You did not include or attach any pictures to your original post, otherwise they (or their corrupted links) would be shown. Possible errors: images too large, incorrect image format or wrong method of...

As I said before, nobody is going to add any info as long as we don't know what we are talking about here. You can either re-size and re-upload the pics at your end (e.g. via [url="http://www.picresize.com"]http://www.picresize.com[/url]...

The numbers have nothing to do with age or manufacture, in fact the items could have been made last week as far as we know. Up until now you can not even be sure if those are indeed pattern numbers as...

The number is a British (UK) registration number from between 1892 and 1893. Even if you had access to the UK registration archives it is doubtful you would find the maker of the item as such registrations...

[quote]Embedding link does not work! This forum is a mess:([/quote] Claiming that the forum is a mess after obviously screwing up yourself is quite a call, don't you think? I mean, take another look at...

Oh, the former [i]Villeroy & Boch[/i] factory later became that what is today simply called [i]Schramberg[/i] due to the successors name of [i]Majolikafabrik Schramberg[/i] so you are not really wrong....
