The mark underneath could say TALAVERA with what looks like MDUE above. But, as you say, all the talavera pottery I have seen is glossy not matt. So I'm a bit stumped by this. I also have a feeling that whilst this might not be very old, it could be a 70's type pot ... I'm just guessing ... but it doesn't say what some of the more modern ones say (such as "Made in Spain"), and the flower appears to be well painted (OK it will still be for tourists - so that implies it has been painted on a conveyor belt type system - just 'knock'em out')[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
