You probably will have little luck in finding the mark in regard to anything vintage...I think it comes from the "Land of Make Believe". ;)

Spurious mark, spurious china.

Not a bad looking pansy bowl , sugarcube5419 ... like the other members , I can't really see the mark well @ all in the image .
I don't recognize it even a little bit .

hi fancy--it was located already for me (thanks all), and the mark is horrible but the bowl itself is really pretty.  Why would a company put that much work into a fake?  And i didn't realize they were pansies so thanx for that too

hi mart
