      thank you for all comments, the mark is not swords but looks more like two pitch forks with three prongs on both ends. So again if anyone can help I would be truely thankful.

      Volkstedt porcelain manufactury sited in Rudolstadt, Thuringia, Germany, was the earliest porcelain manufactory in Thuringia. It is still in business as Aelteste Volkstedter Porzellanmanufaktur, the “Oldest Volkstedt Porcelain Manufactory”. Several late 19th and 20th century factories copied all of the "hayfork" marks.
