<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 124783, member: 308"]Hello everyone - I found this on eBay and for $.01 so I thought I'd take a chance. It's a trinket box standing about 3 1/2" to the top of the finial and about 4" wide. I thought I recognized the mark as Volkstedt but now that I've got it I'm not so sure. It is handpainted. There is damage to the inside lid rim but the main thing troubling me is the base. It is unglazed except for a little circle where the mark is placed. Is anyone familiar enough with Volkstedt to tell me whether this is a repro? Below is the best shot of the mark I could get - the original is blurry and if I try and get any closer for a shot I lose it completely. Thanks much!</p><p>Don</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]31827[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]31828[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]31829[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]31830[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
