<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ValerieK, post: 4498370, member: 7360&quot;]Yes, thank you, I am tending towards Italian as well.&nbsp; German ceramics were definitely marked Foreign between the wars, Japanese items were also sometimes marked Foreign but I&#039;m not sure why, they were apparently on the western side in WWI (although against China), but I think the faces are quite Japanese, so perhaps just after WWII, rather than using &quot;Occupied Japan&quot;.&nbsp; But the costumes and general style look Italian!&nbsp; I have just found a forum on which an Italian expert confirms that Italian ceramics were sometimes marked Foreign, although he didn&#039;t know exactly when, and no-one seems to know for certain.&nbsp; There were other Italian figurines in my job lot, so it seems the most likely.&nbsp; I am hoping someone can confirm that identification so I can sell them properly described, and not just &quot;Foreign&quot;.&nbsp; I wonder why they are so sad?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
