Sorry, the pictures won't allow me to zoom in like they sometimes do!  Can't even begin to guess!
I'm from the South - but please don't mistake my Southern Manners/Accent/Charm as a weakness!

We know it's stone ware. the style is 1890's or so. but the interior glazeing would indicate a date after 1900. with out further a do. no less than $30 Dollars.

If we could identify the trademark. ?

amiga, try by setting your camera to "portrait" mode (or high-resolution) to take the picture. Then with your photo program, …….. “crop canvas” (save the mark) and then “resize image” (enlarge it) to say 5" square … or …. vice versa. If the picture is shot in high resolution, … really high pixel count, ….. then when you enlarge a portion of it …… it will not appear “blurry”.

OH, and ps, save a "copy" of the picture before you start playing around with it so you always have a 'backup' ..... to try it again.
