Thanks in advance to any of you who recognise, or are able to decipher, the initials or name on this lovely brown jug. Not old really but a lovely design and it's bothering me that I can't figure it out! I wondered if it was Polish or Czech. Happy bank holiday!

Looks like oriental symbols vertically aswell lol.

Quite amazing accuracy on that slip decoration.

I think you are right, Naomi. The more recent stuff definitely looks similar, especially heimberg/steffisburg colouring and patterns. Thanks.
