<p>[QUOTE="drg642, post: 4378802, member: 74"]Pretty little demitasse cup and saucer, all hand painted I believe. The first mark shown is on the cup, and it is a gilt blob (stemmed fruit?) covering a green Tettau mark, and a crown over D in blue. The saucer has the same markings, but the gilt is lighter so you can see the green mark under the gilt. The last 2 photos show the saucer mark, tilted differently into the light.</p><p>So, I don't know what to make of the gilt blob. I am guessing the company that decorated this purchased blanks from Tettau? Then they added their own gilt blob and crown over D mark?</p><p>From what I see on-line the decorator could be Helena Wolfsohn, or some other Dresden maker. I saw Karl-Heinz Klette also mentioned as using this mark, and others, but with a 5-pronged crown. Can anyone point me in the right direction for determining the maker? Thanks.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]366967[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]366968[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]366969[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]366970[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]366971[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
