    I have had this for probably 25 years at least and have never been able to find anything about it. Any info would be helpful. About 6" tall.

    There's a current auction on eBay with the title listed below that shows a better picture of your mark:

    It depends on whoever writes the blurb. I favor plums, myself. We don't have oval pears or peaches in this neck of the woods.

    People just don't know their stuff. It's not limited to fruits.

    I saw an auction title for a figurine of mare and foal listed as "a mother horse with her fawn" not too long ago. :joyful:

    I tried to find this mark at Porcelain Marks and More, but had no luck.

    Not sure as I could so far only verify the plain "H&J" mark but shown mark is claimed to have belonged to the decoration studio of "Hofmann & Jahn" from the town of Chodau in (then) Austrian Bohemia. Company existed between 1890 and shortly after WW1. "Vienna" was often used as marketing term (like "Royal", "Teplitz", "Prussia", etc.). As said: no positive ID yet.
