Picked this pretty up a couple of weeks ago. I have looked and looked and cannot find this exact mark and all the crossed arrows are starting to look alike. No hits for Decor Chatelaine. This is just a little something that I picked up to give to as a birthday gift (with a gift inside), but it would be nice for the resident collector to know something about the gift. Although lately I have been stumped a lot!
I found a couple of things...
Chatelaine - Wikipedia, the free Châtelaine (French châtelaine, wife of the lord of a castle)
And

Hope that helps.I couldn't find the mark anywhere, though. I have found this reference helpful, though I didn't see yours there:

Good luck!
Ooooh. Love the marks website! Isn't it funny that we can't find it? You would think with all the resources it would be easier. You are a doll for looking Upstate, thanks.
Hiya Beaux. I will dig into that Kalk tip. No, I am thinking a 50-ish repro, but a super nice repro. It doesn't feel "thin" enough, if you understand my feeling.

If you look at the mark of the crossed arrows it could be a Japanese piece decorated in France. It certainly looks like Limoges.
Frankieboy, yes it really does look similar. Wonder if it makes a difference with the two vs three feathers on the arrow? Hmmmm...
Thank you for the link, it gives me another thread to pull :0)
