    This looks like a toothbrush holder with two holes and an open pocket for the toothpaste. It has a mark on the back that I am unfamiliar with. It is made of crockery and even appears to be handmade. It is white with a blue wheat pattern on the front. Does anyone know this maker mark?

      The mark is "China". It was made in China.

      The Chinese have been flooding the U.S. market with pottery that looks like studio pottery. I've heard they have actually gone to U.S. craft fairs and purchased items from the potters, to take back to China to reproduce for export. A lot of the pots have foil Made in China stickers. At least this one is stamped, even if it isn't very legible.
