Thank you for the help.  I did find that it's a Carl Schumann piece, the mark was used after 1900.  I appreciate you looking up the Thompson for me.  No garage sale for these things.

Hello.  I'm new here and new to antiques as well.  I'm looking for some information about a few pieces I have found while going through my grandmother's things.  I'm not able to do pictures, so I hope you will be able to help me at least identify the markings on these bowls.

The first is a pink bowl, with a rose in the middle.  The marking on the bottom is something like this.  TH OM and PS ON directly underneath
with a line running between the TH, OM, and PS, ON and another line dividing the top and bottom.  I take it to be Thompson, but am not sure.

The next is a white bowl with what looks to be lilacs in the middle.  This marking is a little more difficult.  It is a "crest" of sorts with BAVARIA written diagonally in it and a C and S on either side.


I would be very appreciative if anyone had an idea about these items.  I have a garage sale coming up and am debating putting these out there without more information.

Thank you.
