I'm going cross-eyed trying to make out what this signature says... I thought it looks like Pourlin but can't find anything remotely similar as a potter / pottery.

I thought it looked something like 'Polring', but a Google yielded nothing. Had a trawl through my Godden, but no joy there either. Frustrating, isn't it?

Cheers,

Hi there:
Can you give us another closer shot of the signature, or with it cropped closer.  Then also try another pic with rubbing some *ash* (dark) on it -- or another with some *talc* (light color) on it.  Either the dark ashes, or the talc might help us figure it out.....plus a closer shot.

Looks like something like Poulin, or Porulin....we will give it another try....

never say Never...LOL
