La courtille factory had crossed arrows registered in 1773 by Jean Baptiste Locre

"Kalk" = Geyer & Körbitz, Porzellanfabrik Kalk GmbH, Eisenberg, produced mainly domestic china.

The factory originally located at Köln-Kalk was transferred to Eisenberg,
Thüringen, East Germany

The wet stamp as above sometimes with "Kalk", cf. Klingenbrunn, Deutsche Porzellanmarken, p.90f and Zühlsdorff, Markenlexikon, p.304

The same mark was also used by a company in Japan.

Mod Edit: Link to live ebay auction removed, as per board policy - sorry TC. It can be re-instated when its finished.

I'm not sure if Arnart is an actual porcelain company or just an importer, but the mark has been copied as it appears on... http://www.porcelainmarksandmore.com/resources/fake_n_repro/00.phpso
...as a repro.

Kalk does look the best bet, although their arrow marks all seem to have three feathers , this looks like two , might make a difference who knows ? , but need to see pot first .

I agree. The fakes look very similiar to the Kalk mark and it would explain the numbers.
I only recall Kalk plates with a popular pattern called "Strohmuster" or "Indisch-Blau"
produced by many factories, esp. Carstens Reichenbach. These Kalk plates never had any numbers,
just the stamp, if I recall correctly.

Volkstedt in Thuringia would my guess, Karl Ens.
