    I would like to know more about these vases. They were brought from England to the states by my mother.

      The design/pattern name is Fonsa. This is a woman's name in Dutch.
      It's made by the fayence factory Zuid Holland in Gouda, with the shape/model number and the decor number: 804 and 1667. I'm not sure which one is which. There looks to be an impressed number on one of the pieces and I think this indicates the decor number. There is the "little house" mark. This is a misnomer. It's actually called the Lazarus gate: the gate to the leper hospital in Gouda. It's an unmistakable mark indicating manufacture by the Plateelfabriek Zuid-Holland (PZH ). To the left of the Lazarus gate is the year mark. On both pieces this is 1927. Below one is a 7 and this would indicate July. To the right of the gate on one is a monogram of the artist. I can't help you there.
      They are lovely!
