Thank you, OBB, that fits in with belonging to her mom.
I’m in Canada. However, the mother of the friend who passed away lived in the UK before emigrating to Canada. I believe these items may be hers.
I suppose I could’ve put these in the Finds Thread, but I wasn’t really looking for these. Sadly, a friend lost his wife to pancreatic cancer a...
Thought I had seen the mark before. Looked up “utenlansk” which translated to “foreign.” Guess it was exported to Norway/Scandinavia. Hilsen...
German fairing from around turn of 20th c...
Maybe a spill vase made to hold spills or matches to light fires...
I don’t look in as often as I’d like. I don’t think any great art is being “defaced” and if these paintings wind up at a thrift, then they’re not...

I have a similar table without the game board in the centre. Unfortunately, it has a lot of losses of the bone inserts (not high quality stuff!)....

The fins look like orca fins in Haida carvings, but I’m not entirely sure. Very interesting totem!
The foot rim and base are giving me pause. Pretty colour, but maybe a newer production...
Chocolate. Don’t place too close to the fireplace...:bucktooth:
I think German from the mark and the impressed numbers. They exported to Britain and the rest of the European continent, so Depose may be for the...
I’m stumped. I see a K and a C or G. But maybe that’s not the correct orientation?
I was thinking Chinese at first glance, but the delicate calligraphy of the marks on the bottom make me think Japanese. Might not have been...
Studio pottery rather than art pottery, maybe.
Lovely glaze. I thought Belgium was a good guess because some of their glazes are excellent, too.
