Anyone know who might have made this little cache pot, and when?

I think it's a recent Asian import based on an early 20thC German/Austrian design

Can i ask why you think that, so i can do more research?
I have a pair of these and it's quite likely that they came from the clearout of an antiques shop.

I tend to agree, A copy of European "majolica".
I'm sure I can see moulding marks in the pix.

First thoughts Secla Portugal type, but seems to me to lack the quality

I've found one just like it and one very similar with a base mark both attributed to Alhambra Pottery c.1880s.

Alhambra would have been tin glazed earthenware but this looks like stoneware or a thick porcelain

There are a number on eBay with a red Alhambrian stamp, and listed as 1880s Victorian majolica. A couple of the listings say The Alhambrian Majolica Company was located in Staffordshire and operated 1888-1910. Maybe it’ll be on the Staffordshire Pottery website.
