    I picked this up a couple of months ago and have been unable to decipher the mark on the base. Last word looks like vietnam and the second line maybe 'Ceramic'. I'm guessing 20th C export. Its about 15cm tall. Any ideas on the mark please?

    Same here :D
    The first line looked like MAH HAI to me, so I googled that + ceramic + Vietnam, and that gave the right answer :)

    I rather like it. Almost a calligraphic design.

    It reminded me of chinese pottery at first with the banana leaves. Looking at search results for the mark, its very mmodern. I think you can still buy um in Tesco.
