Hi Floyd,
Thank you for your patience; my colleague was stumped so asked one of their colleagues. Long story, short, none of us can identify the maker. They both felt the losses to the bottom were significant enough to decrease/diminish the value, and that the style of the decoration was somewhat derivative, and possibly made as a later copy. All that said, it's a lovely decorative piece that I've priced accordingly.
Thanks again,
Delia
Take your time ! Thanks
