    Does anybody know what this mark is? Looks like an RH but Im unsure.

    It will be European most likely but I dont know what the charcter is who is represented.

    What a cool piece ! Im not sure he represents anyone,more a generic "Oriental" theme. I agree possibly English,maybe some of our British boardies will pop in soon.It looks to be in perfect condition.

    Is it listed on ebay? I was hoping for a slam dunk Reinhold Hanke, but it doesn't seem to be.

    It is from an ebay listing, dont think I'll buy it though. Even without a maker I imagine it won't go cheap enough for me at the moment. That would have been nice if it were Hanke. I am thinking English on gut insticnt now aswell with @johnnycb09.

    I disregarded that because of my being from England. But I did think it looks like that at first haha
