<p>[QUOTE="UserUnknown, post: 181485, member: 622"]Bought this at a local thrift store with the possibility to sell it. I was very thrown by the green "HOLLAND" painted mark. It made me think it was a pretty piece of pottery that I wouldn't mind if it was new and I ending up having to keep flowers in it. While I was taking pictures I noticed two things. The first, numbers and letters impressed on the bottom. Second, when using flash a GOUDA HOLLAND mark appeared under the green painted one. I found the shape in a picture from a current display at the Gouda Museum from the Leen Muller collection. This led me to Fons Decker. I am having a hard time trying to find the information in the US as most seems to be in Dutch? I just don't understand this green mark. Was it an original that someone thought was a fake and then remarked it to pass it as original? Is it a reproduction that someone tried to pass as authentic? Thanks for any help![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
