i'm not sure why, but i can't load any photos of the bottom from directly above. it's just not loading them?? i found this at Urban Ore in berkeley today along w/ some other goodies. It says 'Austria' in a beautiful monogram/script and there's a VK and a 3000/32 and 8 ins [or something like that].

VK Pottery - open weave basketry?
Mürtzal Keramik.
thank you Kevin! i thought that you would recognize it. i looked at a bunch of them which had a much simpler imprint of Austria on the bottom. this one has a very highly stylized mark, which i like alot. maybe just an early version of it? looks to be a circa 1920 or earlier mark.
Kevin is our CW Whiz-Kid here!! Thanks always Kevin for your knowledge.
Neat piece / post !!
Sorry about the typo .... Mürztal Keramik.
The VK is short for Volkskeramik.
It's bound to be an earlier mark. It's a CACHEPOT or ÜBERTOPF.
I've seen a reference to:
Volkskeramik Mürzzuschlag F. Birnstigl und Comp.
(1911-1975)
The factory was in the town of Mürzzuschlag.
