    Hello,

    I have this teacup I believe to be from German manufacturer Ahrenfeldt. Mark does not indicate country, so I think it was made before 1891 (McKinley Tariff Act) but after 1862. I base this all on general research, but I can’t find much online to support this exact cup, so I could be dead wrong.

    Is anyone familiar with the collection or the decade? I’d like to confirm the origin, make, and date if possible.

    Thanks!

    Röntgen's book of marks shows these versions of the mark and dates.
