Posted By: Bill H Sun, Jul 03, 2016 This piece probably was made in Europe. The shield-shape is common in many western ceramics marks, but this one doesn't appear in my old Kovel's dictionary. The Kovels online repository of marks ( https://www.kovels.com/index.php ) does show one entry that is somewhat but not entirely similar, but you'll have to sign up as a subscriber to view the I.D. If you decide to do so, search under the term "shield". |

Posted By: Bill H Mon, Jul 04, 2016 Nice work. No. 16 also is similar to the one I spotted on the Kovel's website. |

Posted By: mikeoz Mon, Jul 04, 2016 I suggest that the figures making up the legs are not dragons but gryphons. |

Posted By: snap Mon, Jul 04, 2016 Search WorldCat for books on 19th century majolica. There might even be one or two on German majolica and a monograph or two on your target factory. |
