    Lovely bowl, Mugz. I can see why you might think this could be by another Vignoli, the work on their website seems to be different. Maybe yours is an older piece?
    'Our' very knowledgeable @Walter Del Pellegrino can no doubt tell us more.

    Aaron, thanks for the link, that is a great site to browse, they make really amazing faience. This one is my favourite, it reminds me of the work of the Dutch artist M.C. Escher:

    Yes it could be perhaps an older item. The sister's site has one that is cover with sardines or some similar fish that is my favorite. I did not get a chance to look at the marks on other pieces by them to compare. On my way to a dawn flea market event will o find some comparable when I get back this evening. Thanks have a wonderful day all

    aaroncab I was confused by the Bottega being absent from the pottery mark. I had a chance do do some comparable on some other pottery by Bottega Vignoli sisters and found your answer and link to the sisters 100% correct. My piece is so small compared to the very large pieces that they display online.

    P.S. Sorry for the air of doubt and my sincere apology. Thanks for the link no futher clarification needed

    No apology needed - I wasn't 100% sure myself - I just provided the link as a possibility - I'm really glad you found some comparable and know the maker now!
