    Old sellers' identification tags on back of the jar. Jar was purchased in Germany. The only maker's marks I could find are on the bottom of the jar. Hope this is helpful.

      Based on the maker's marks, the Nymphenburg Porcelain factory verified that they made the jar, but indicated the final painting was NOT done in the factory, and was done at a much later date than 1830. People could purchase white painted jars from the Nymphenburg factory, and do the final decorations themselves. That explains why the jar looks so fresh. Nymphenburg also said that the "painting is not very elaborate." So, definitely not as advertised.
