Cantagalli used a cockerel mark.

 

lol had to resize photos thanks guys

 

could you go back to your post and hit edit and click on full image , please !!!

 

It looks Italian to me.

 

Italian, the mark is for Cantagalli

 

And a ewer rather than a vase.

 

I believe ewer correct !!!

 

Does anyone else think this is not hand painted but rather something else?

 

Cantagalli = singing cockerel. Easy to remember.

I can't tell from the photo.

 

Just searching images by this maker of pottery, the putti and the dense orange tree setting is hard to beat. Nice large figures and total use of surface.

 

Here's another example of their work using the same blank. Very lush.

Appreciate everyone's help and knowledge

 

Wish Walter was still with us. On an old thread he mentioned that if Italy is not marked on the base, then it would date before 1921 (McKinley Act). It is an oft-copied mark. I believe that the rooster has to face a certain direction (but I can't remember which way, LOL!). All that said, I think yours is lovely and likely genuine.

 

Actually, not to put a too-fine point on it, but the McKinley Tariff Act occurred in 1890.

 

That date was what it said in Walter's post! I know that country of origin had to be marked from 1891 onwards and that "Made In..." from 1921 onwards -- but it's a rule of thumb.
