Not quite a Meisssen mark? Help with this figurine
« on: May 14, 2012, 11:27:19 pm »
Hello all, I have a porcelain piece that is probably not very old, but I am curious about the mark on the bottom. I tried searching for marks and saw that this looked similar to Meissen's crossed swords, but isn't quite right. Can anyone fill me in? Thank you for your time  :)

EDIT: It seems it might be a HOMCO Japan mark. Is this worth anything?

Meissen marks are the toughest of all the marks to identify. The differences were so subtle. You might drop the Chris Marshall, the owner of the Porcelain Marks and More site above, an email through his Web site.
