Studio Pottery Vase Signature

Not sure which way to rotate the signature. Can someone make something out of it?

 

Man you are just like me when it comes to this stuff. I buy it cause it looks interesting then I'm stuck trying to figure out the signature. Cant help you with signature unfortunately but maybe someone else can. Studio pottery is tough to ID that's why I took a break from it.

 

Try putting some flour or baking soda on the bottom to fill in the incised letters, sometimes this can really help make the marks more legible. Also, I’ve found playing with the colors and light in anything from Photoshop to the general photo preview that comes on every computer can be helpful. From there I’d try referring to The Marks Project or reposting here. Good luck!!!

 

Zorro

 

Nice vase, but the siggy looks different in every photo.
#3 looks like AHL
#4 looks like ZE
#5 looks like ZLC
So I guess it is Zorro, like blooey said. Or maybe Zollo.

 

do a pencil rubbing

 

Pencil rubbing won’t work because if the coarse texture. Tried some baking soda but still not much of a help.
