Small Vase marked Germany - Can't make our Makers

Hello everyone - I've got this little Germany vase that I can't figure out. The vase stands a little under 4" tall. There is a mark but I can't quite make it out. What I can see is a circle with hooked lines (shepherd's crooks?) and four 6 sides stars. Germany is printed in impressed letters. Any help is much appreciated!

Just reporting back. I sat this next to my computer for months and finally just listed it without an attribution. A kind ebayer sent the following message:
Just thought I would tell you that this little vase was made by Paul Schreier and is Bunzlau pottery.
I thought it might not hurt to have it on record in case another inquiry comes through sometime in the future.
