    The logo on the base is that of Martial Redon, Limoges, France. Active approx. 1853 to 1890's. The other printing doesn't appear to be factory applied. Plas Mawr is a historic home in Wales, open to the public. Perhaps Aurora purchased the vase in the gift shop when on a tour of the home.

    It looks a lot like some vases painted by amateur hobby painters on blanks from good factories.

    Painting blank pieces was a big pastime for women in Victorian days.

    I lived in St. Pete Fla back in the 80s,and right up the road was a club where little old ladies painted china,and then once a year they'd sell it off and donate the proceeds to charity. I dont know if thats still a thing,but my point was that up until then china painting was still popular. Ive still got a few pieces with poppies on them like yours. :)
