    if i recall correctly this has been made by the hamelner töpferei which was founded by Gertrud Kraut in 1919. she has been responsible for the artistic direction. their hallmark stamp is in the shape of a stylized rat, with the letters H.T.
    The elefant is from the Delius period (1933 - 1966) and should be from the 1960s
    Klaus and Hildegard Delius started their career at Carstens - Rheinsberg
    in 1926, later they went to Carstens - Neuhaldensleben (ca. 1930)
    after they've left Carstens they took over the Hameln pottery in 1933, started their own business in 1934, Klaus died by accident in 1936 and the son Peter Delius became responsible for the artistic direction in 1953. He did some great stuff....
    the elefant is not marked but i'm quite sure it's hamelner
