Strawflower jug with arrows mark

Grabbed this today. I see a few similar marks have been posted on here before. Not seen one with quills pointing away from numerals though

 

it's german - my client lived there for 7 years and he brought home at least 100 pieces of this pattern - I will look the next time I am there for the makers mark - some vary from piece to piece...

 

I would sway towards Germany too. The pattern is copied quite a lot so I guess the mark rather than the pattern would yield the manufacturer. I have even seen masons plates with the strawflower pattern.

 

It's probably Kalk.

 

I've not heard of that one but I will have a look thanks

 

Looks like we have a winner.

Janet you win a prize of an extra special thanking you

 

This is the information from Chris Marshall's site showing the mark for Kalk. The only thing I'd wonder about is the orientation. They are shown pointing down rather than up.

Replacements has a Kalk coffeepot that seems to have the same handle and body shape so it seems a good possibility to me.

Yes they do seem to point the wrong way. I have seen examples with the numbers at the side so it's hard to be certain about it. The link I posted has the arrows pointing the same way as mine and is very similar. However there is no proof that it is a kalk either.

 

Arnart also used a crossed arrows mark.

 

This is Chris's Arnart page. They look different to me for the most part as do most Arnart items. (but that's my casual observation)

Even though the arrows seem to point the wrong way, I would say Kalk, too, because the body is very white and German porcelain is usually quite white, IIRC.
