Was wondering where I might search for maker and details of this flow blue picture. It is Asian themed and I have not been able to find anything searching the Internet
Can’t find any info on this pretty flow blue pitcher | ||

This isn't much help, but.... It's something like an 1840s plate I have with a pattern of Chapoo. Ironstone transferware. Date-range of my piece 1830s-1850s. By the U.S. Civil War, this sort of flow blue was out of style. Thus, I'd say it dates to the same time as my plate.
It says G &F CECCHI L0ndon & Florence. Looks like there may be an embossed mark above also. I will see what I can find out
Sorry, I couldn't find much on this company, what I did find was in Italian. Here is a link to one for sale, but all the pottery sites I frequent have no info on this company. That can mean it is quite rare or one of the many fakes coming from Asia http://www.thingcorner.com/fichaArticulo.php?articulo=1164
Here is a link from an auction house, so I guess it is legithttps://www.maisonbibelot.com/uk/auction-0121-2/pottery-dish-set-g-f-cecchi-florence--london--3360.asp
