I think they are painted, rather than stamped. Separated from the other letters is a faint (stamped) "R."  For "Registered Trademark"? When I google, the AI seems to be making it up.  First it told me that it was the mark for Chamberlain & Co, so I looked it up in Goodin (1991 ed, pp. 838-389).  Nonsense: Chamberlain operated 1786-1852, none of their marks are remotely like these, nor is the style like my vase.  I tried again & AI told me it was the mark for C.J.E. Pottery Company (a manufacturer & exporter), but a google search found no such company. Tried again: AI claimed that CJE Pottery is a Studio Pottery, known for high quantity works. (Probably borrowed from CJ Pottery.) Once again, google could find nothing. Does anyone have any idea what this could be?[/QUOTE]
