@komokwa That store is no longer there, but lots of NWC art around for purchase. I do like some the young indigenous artists' stuff -- I like to...
20th c, I reckon, first half or so. Has a Hummel look to it. Although, that light blue colour used in the mark always makes me think Japanese,...
Very nice glazes!
Cherry Ames! Blast from the past -- I read my mother's copies. AJ Cronin -- Nevil Shute and Alistair McLean were other authors I remember...
With Germany stamped on the bottom, post 1891 at any rate. And yes, I see a straublum (strawbloom) pattern as well.

That's a great score!
Love it -- I'm still a sucker for a nice teacup and saucer and that is right up my alley with the bird decoration. Lucky you!
I certainly would've kept the centre stone, but I think that the memories associated with it may not be all happy ones for my husband and sister...
Well, the deed is done. The bar of gold and the ring are sold. Personally, for what my husband was given for the ring, I would've kept it....
