What do you think ??

Both owned by same person !!

The Dr Wall looks like one of those Samson homages; the French factory which copied styles from across the world to a very high standard and used pseudo marks.

The Worcester...nope. Resembles something more like Copeland but might not be British

What did you think about the marks ??

[Ipcress]

The mark on the Dr Wall is similar to a known mark but not identical. The base doesn’t look quite right ( the rim ).

Here’s a good example of the genuine article.

The mark on the Kovels piece is similar but not identical to #2 here

It might be right and I’d advise the owner to send images to the factory.
Samson porcelain is very collectible itself, so there’s value even if it’s not Worcester

The other doesn’t resemble a makers mark to me, just a very small crescent near a pattern / factory number.

Thanks Ipcress,, the only reference to the crescent mark stated that it was used but in blue ink and this is red !!

[Ipcress]

It’s also too small, Mart, if it’s the little mark below the number in the photo

[mart]

Thats the only one that I saw !!
