    Hi everyone! I am onto the next thing in the collection and it has me guessing. Looks like a San Marco porcelain stamp but I have no idea of age and haven’t had any luck trying to figure it out?! Any hints? Is it junk?

    I think you are correct that it is a San Marco mark.
    I don't think it is junk.
    I would think Pan is desirable as long as it is in good condition.

    Can you do your magic and find another

    There have been so many things from cleaning out my Nan’s old cupboard that I had written off as worthless, I am rapidly learning otherwise! Thanks for your help!

    Other members may be able to make more sense of it.
    But you might use search term “porcelain boy satyr”, or Pan as ClutteredCloset suggested.

    Excuse me, I just have to throw this in for @Jivvy

    Google pickings are slim when you eliminate Royal Copenhagen. The ones I find most like OP are, rightly or wrongly, described as Capodimonte. Since there's a similarity in the mark, can't rule C out of searches.

    I think that Chris meant the mark is often misrepresented as Capodimonte.

    I also do not think this is from China. Notice the incised "A" under the mark. China as far as I know has not started doing this. Also notice the detail in the flowers. It is fairly well made. Whether it has much age on it, I'm not sure.
