This is an old vase with a portrait of a beautiful woman on one side. It's from Austria and has a R&I or something in the mark on it. the repair is pretty good and hardly visible w/ no missing chips. i found it at Goodwill today.
Stunning piece !! I have not idea but take a peek around at this site ( I did not have the time yet to scroll ) -- and see if you spot anything.

thank you antiquerose and IVAN49! nice detective work Ivan! Robert Hanke it is!
btw Did our Canajun members know that there are no more Goodwill stores in Canada. It's a disgrace! There's about 6 stores left, but out of reach of a bus or a cab.
We only have the downtown ''Salvation Army' store with limited stock; 'Value Village'' - well picked over by the antique and vintage hawks early in the morning. But lots of continuous stock. <: ((
Thanks for your comment Gillian. no, i did not know that, but will take note for my next visit to Quebec.
You have some really nice things I like the things you collect. Really lovely
