Do Signatures on Porcelain Objects Suggest Age? "Hache" - Post 1

<p>[QUOTE="KikoBlueEyes, post: 1184923, member: 8363"]In my never ending efforts to learn about antiques, I have recently run across two porcelain objects that have signatures. The first one is this small bowl with a metal rim that is not magnetic (using the strong earth magnet as recommended here). The painting in the center has "Hache" on it. The reverse has France with the upper line blacked out. From what I gather Hache is a maker, but it seems to be a strange place for a maker's mark to be on front as if it was a signature. What I am trying to discern is whether a signature is an indicator of age. Any insights will be gratefully appreciated.[ATTACH=full]213374[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]213375[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]213376[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]213377[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]213378[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]213379[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]213380[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
