    IMG_9487.JPG IMG_9488.JPG IMG_9698.PNG Hello all,

    I'm hoping you can help! I'm better at identifying antique dolls and bears, not so great with ceramics. I'm trying to identify this set of rocking horses, mum bought them at an auction years ago and I can't find any information on them, I've tried searching for a similar makers mark with no luck, so I turn to the brains trust here! There was a stamp saying made in Italy but I don't have a photo of that part, only of the makers mark and the horse set. Any help is great appreciated, thank you in advance!

    Kate :)

    And hello to you too! Is this a mark of some kind or just a design element? (Pic doctored for contrast.)

    Just a design element. It's quite unusual but I can't find anything else like it!

    Was it a label or an actual stamp? With Italian ceramics, that can be a huge clue.

    Thank you :) the ZB mark in the circle in the photo, is embossed inward, not a separate label that has been stuck on (The small sticker that says David jones is a just shop label).
