[QUOTE="Brian Warshaw, post: 4307716, member: 16674"]I bought this sauciere for centimes because it was pretty, intact, blue ad white. In my mind it is typically French, and I bought it in France; BUT... The marque which is a lion in front of the sun, states 'TRADE MARK' in the Arabic alphabet. And the monogram is (I think), GBI and maybe a J: Does anybody know the manufacturer? I'm not to sure where to start. It is made of earthenware, and carries no place of manufacture so was perhaps, made before 1891. I saw a small covered dish today from the same set and didn't buy it. Will try tomorrow to do so. Help please: [ATTACH=full]349863[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349864[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349865[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349866[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349867[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
