<p>[QUOTE="Natasha, post: 3532203, member: 3724"]Hello Magnolija, have to disappoint you, I do not know the answer. The letters are definitely from the Russian alphabet. So, it cannot be German. You say this is more than 100 years old, at that time Latvia used the alphabet which looked more like Latin (but with some particular letters)/ So, does not look like Latvian. Now, we have Russian. I did not find that mark in the catalogues of imperial Russian porcelain. To me it looks like the abbreviation of family name, name, and patronymic of the owner. Probably the set was made at the order and they put the initials of the owner.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
