    This looks a lot like a Bauer pitcher (or ewer or carafe), but I can't make out the mark on the bottom. It was owned by my sister's late mother-in-law, who probably picked it up at a garage sale, which was a happy habit of hers. Any ideas? Thanks!

      billretirecoll - you are a great "finder". It's nice to see the three marks where the firing stilts were.

      Thanks Ben, and Gillian, just doing my job! :^D Well the only thing close to one anyway!
      I have a few of these, there's not a lot of difference between this type of California Pottery Carafes, but the little bit of off-oval mark on the bottom, I knew that it wasn't Bauer, and a quick search found the right one!
      This is what CW is all about, helping all of us, to learn more about the things that we collect! Happy to help! :^)
