    Please can anyone translate what all the marks mean on the bottom of this vase?.
    Google is letting me down.
    Thankyou :)

    The site I provided has several pages of the symbols and their meanings. Your tree and stork are both on there.
    From the site:
    On the left of the factory mark, the letters L or M, and special markings (in this case a tree) indicate the (production) year codes.
    In the bottom right corner of the mark you should also find the decorators signature.
    Furthermore the factory started making use of an "stamp", instead of the hand painted mark, around 1900.
    Accordingly the numerals, present in such pieces, state its order number.
    As mentioned before the factory also used the symbol of a "window" from 15 August 1896 onwards. This symbol tells us that the piece was given approval by its head of painting, D.P.J. de Ruiter.

    It is a beauty, K.:)
    While it is 'plateel', like Gouda, and it has the stippling in the decoration which you also see in Gouda, this is Rozenburg, as Steffanie said. Rozenburg was made in The Hague. The stork features in the coat of arms of The Hague.
    The stippling on both Gouda and The Hague plateel was inspired by the stippling in Javanese and Madurese batik designs.
    The Dutch Art Nouveau style was strongly influenced by Indonesian arts, as you can see in this vase.
