Westerwald Stoneware? - Werner Corzelius, Höhr-Grenzhausen

looks like Westerwald stoneware.

To add, this is at the utilitarian, rather than the collectable, end of their range of stoneware items.

thanks naomim it is very similar... that makes mark could it be one of their designers isn't it? perhaps i should email them and try to find out more on that makers mark itself

westerwald is an area of Germany you can't email it?

M. Girmscheid, Höhr Grenzhausen, Rheinstr. 41, since 1884, still producing
traditional salt glazed stoneware and reproductions of Art nouveau jugs originally
by Merkelbach

cf. sticker in the 1930s

thanks guys for all your help and thanks to you vhbb64 for solving the mystery mark for me, i really appreciate it

The jug is not by the company M. Girmscheid but by Werner Corzelius from Höhr-Grenzhausen.
Their mark since the 1970s is a "W" within a "C"!
