<p>[QUOTE="Walter Del Pellegrino, post: 398792, member: 90"]I believe that your vase originally arrived on the marketplace completely unmarked. I think some unscrupulous individual decided to add false markings in an attempt to add value to pitcher. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts sell reproductions of some pieces of pottery they own. They are marked as such, particularly the ones from Portugal and Spain. The use of Roman numerals on legitimate copies are used to denote the century that the original was made. In my opinion the pitcher was made in Portugal or Spain. It was not made in Italy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
