      it appears to be English and it is stoneware, I could be wrong .... the dating on this could maybe mid to late 1800's . lets see what others say!!!

      Thanks Sean68, That is a start, just cant find Mark anywhere. Will look specifically for English marks, which may help

      Sean's right .... Check out English Registration marks.
      There are two different sets explained here:

      Bingo Sean68, found it's a registration mark. Maker is outside of diamond hard to read but believe it says T. F. A. & Co? So now I know it is english from Aug 30th 1845 based on this Registration Mark!

      The top mak is IV for pottery.
      Underneath the IV will be either a letter or a digit.

      In your case it will be a letter so read the set titled 1842-1867.

      The rest of the marks can be read from there.

      Thanks All! that Mark site gave me the Exact date of production, but I hesitate to believe this authenticity when there is clearly a seam which I think tells me this was made from a mold?
      What do you think?

      See additional pics I uploaded and see top has age to it

      Fake or Real, That is the question? Now that I understand the mark, I am suspect of this being from the 1800's?
    9. SEAN68 SEAN68, 9 years ago
      youirs is the real thing !!!! yes like I said from the 1800's !!! your golden :)
    10. bstiewing, 9 years ago
      Thanks Sean! Through me off seeing the seams on the pitcher / stein.

      Thanks ALL for your help!

      "OLD KING COLE, WAS A MERRY OLD SOUL, A MERRY OLD SOUL WAS HE
      HE CALLED FOR HIS CUP, HE CALLED FOR HIS BOWL, AND HE CALLED FOR HIS FIDDLES THREE" ( There he is with his cup)
      You have a depiction of OLD KING COLE from the very,very old English Nursery Rhyme!! How sweet is that! WONDERFUL!!
