<p>[QUOTE=&quot;quirkygirl, post: 286455, member: 106&quot;]Picked up this sauce/gravy boat with an unusual painted scene.&nbsp; At first I thought it was a hobbyist painted piece ... but with all the stamps on the bottom, I&#039;m thinking a professionally decorated piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can find the porcelain maker as Martial Redon &amp; Co., but am lost with the other two marks.&nbsp; The one with three letters <i>may</i> be CRA ... can find one or two references to those letters in conjunction with Redon porcelain, but no mention to what they stand for.&nbsp; The other mark (which I <i>thought</i> would be the easy one)&nbsp; is just a complete mystery to me - from the spacing on the crest, I think only one letter is missing ... Sallais? Pallais? Gallais? Callais? ... is that winged helmet supposed to represent anything/anyone?</p><p><br /></p><p>There seems to be lint (or something) stuck to/in the paint around the youngster&#039;s head ... tried to rinse it off with plain water with no change ... are these designs fired on?&nbsp; Can I use something stronger to try and clean it?&nbsp; Could these linty bits be <u>IN</u> the paint?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]92293[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]92294[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]92295[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]92296[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]92297[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]92298[/ATTACH] </p><p>lint or whatever</p><p>[ATTACH=full]92299[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
