Found this today, Royal Doultan pitcher with poppies as a motif. Interesting that the opium poppies seem to be "scored" razor blade, which is involved with opium harvest. Strange! Apparently its a rare design, still looking up dates. I really like it!
Edit - Apparently the mark was used from 1902-1922 and 1927-1936, so kinda hard to tell if it fell in the Nouveau or the Deco eras
