Crossed swords mark. One of the Dresden potteries?

Thank you. I have looked at the mark with a magnifying glass and there is a capital B between the crossed swords, I dont know whether this means anything.

It might be Meissen or one of their contemporaries copying their mark, but I don’t know enough about Meissen to be able to tell the difference

If the mark was turned the other way up it could be The Kensington porcelain works in Hanley, Stoke on Trent. Between 1872-92 a John Bevington ran the pottery and presented his products as "reproductions of Dresden, Derby, Chelsea and Worcester".
No Dresden pottery had a mark like that.

Thank you so much for that fantastic information. I have been looking at works by John Bevington and I have found the same piece as mine. I'm over the moon.

Well in the first picture, not sure if a boy or girl but what is the little Cherub up to with his left hand, looks rather rude
