    Does anyone know whose maker's mark this is? I'm trying to identify the maker (and value) of a glazed porcelain nativity that was donated to a fundraising rummage sale I'm running.

    You need to show the nativity. The mark looks like a hobbyist's initials.

    The nativity. Sorry for the poor quality, I had to compress the file in order to upload it.

    The limit for uploaded images is 1MB. You did not need to
    compress to upload. Is the file on your computer or your phone?

    Both, I took it with my phone then shared it to my computer to upload. I did the same with the picture of the maker's mark. I got an error message from this website about the file being too big when I tried to upload the picture of the nativity. According to my computer, the picture of the nativity was 1.4MB before compression.

    Hello @Lis & welcome to the forum!! :happy::happy:

    I do not know who made it but I believe they were trying to imitate Lladro due to the shape of the figures & the coloring.

    Ditto. Could be of Spanish origin though, like Lladro.

    The way these are marked on the bottom of these pieces have the distinct look of ceramic molded pieces sold to be painted by someone. JMHO

    @Lis - The mark you see on the bottom of yours might be the initials of the person who painted the figurines.
