Got this today thrifting was made into an old lamp but took it apart. Blue and white Vase 11 inch tall. Marks and sticker on the bottom. Sticker reads "Michael Davis" I do believe letters look Art Noveau. Then AR537/pr. Could be the shop where it was sold? There is a part of a ceramic mark , and a part of a word ARFIN. And stamped on the bottom is numbers partially blocked by the sticker -14/4. I think. Cannot recognize the location on the vase. Grape design all over vase.
Michael Davis is a tag from the shippers in Surrey England sometime inn the 1970's
Rhein is the pattern and the Mark is that of Ludwig Wessel, I believe. Scenes of the Rhine river. They would date from 1875-1900.
