<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 322917, member: 308&quot;]The lack of a mark confused me as well.&nbsp; I suppose it could date back to the Nippon era and been a transitional piece.&nbsp; The bubble bursts on the bottom would also indicate to me that&#039;s it&#039;s an older piece.&nbsp; You wouldn&#039;t normally see a paper label on that type of bottom but it&#039;s not unheard of.&nbsp; I considered some of the German and Bohemian art deco manufacturers but the hollow handles on the side and the relatively thin walls would be atypical not only for them but also for most US companies.&nbsp; Agreed the work is not that sloppy but the rest of it is so neatly done that the few messy lines stand out.&nbsp; I&#039;ve got to emphasize that this is just my own (and not always reliable) thought process.&nbsp; I could be way off.</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
