Title: Furstenberg
Post by: Tony H on November 22, 2007, 12:27:11 AM

Hi Guys
This piece arrived this morning with todays post, I bought a mixed lot from a local internet auction. A hexagon shape,it is small 10cm high by 9cm wide at the widest part and handpainted has the Furstenberg mark on the base. As far as I can tell form 1403/10 can anyone say what the small figure 8 stands for.

 I have placed this in German Other but if it is wrong let me know I read some info online that the Royal Family of Denmark are connected to this firm back in the 1700s I always thought it was from Germany.
