Very nice!
Could be RS Prussia-- the bowl design looks familiar to me.
A photo of the back and the size of the bowl would be useful.

I agree with scottvez. The moment I saw the bowl, I thought of RS Prussia. I have a book about molds used by RS Prussia but it is book two. Too bad, but still in this second book is a mold called "Lily" that very similar to your mold. The example in the book is also unmarked.
As for the age, I would guess your bowl is from the early 1900's.
Not quite the same, but...

No worries..I will take a pic of the back and take dimensions...thanks!
Thanks-- I don't see any further clues on the back.
RS Prussia is high quality porcelain-- do the "light test" on it. Hold it up under a ceiling light and see if you can see your hand moving behind it. If you can, I'd put another check in the RSP block.

The mold has not been given a name by RS Prussia collectors, but the shape is numbered mold 90. It was introduced in 1905, but the bird transfers used here were used around 1908-1910. Love those colours and scene.
Great information rj-- appreciate you joining the discussion and settling the attribution.

Yes Thankyou so much...very much appreciated
I did the light test and can see the shadow of my hand perfectly through the porcelain....Looking good!
