Featured Help with identification please

Can someone identify this for me. I thought it might have been Francoma, McCoy or Teco, but the marks are not right. And I can't make the signature out. I can't even tell which way is up, lol. I tried to photograph it the best I could. Any info is so appreciated. Thank you!

 

With that bottom, would have thought Haeger but that mark likely excludes them. The glaze looks like a North Carolina pottery rutile glaze but, the bottom and mark don't really fit. Only thing I can think of is maybe one of the California potteries, of which I am not very well versed. Might be a direction to look.

maybe @Aquitaine can work her magic on the marks/signature

 

Pretty sure not NC Pottery. Wished I could help

 

I think this time, you peeps have got me stumped!!! It's a SO 'coarse' looking finish, that it was nearly impossible to accurately contrast or with the colors, to bring much up/out.....it does look like some sort of a possible signature on the LEFT of the BOTTOM image.....not that it's very readable either!! WHY do artists sign things when they won't make them legible!!!!
