Another treasure from my bonzo treasure hunt this week. She was absolutely filthy. So much so that I thought it was a brown background, not white, and I couldn't see the writing on the bottom. Just thought the deer (?) was cool and stylized. Haven't had a chance to try and find background info on her yet, just think it is a cool piece.

Hi Amber. Nice one! I think it's from the same factory as my blue vase:

And recently there was this posting

I bet it is hand thrown and it will ring like a bell.
It's late here so I'll have a look around tomorrow. But enjoy the northern trip!
The top line of the mark says "Italy"
Oooohhh, we might have a similar piece?!?! So excited!
I did get the Italy after its long soak for cleaning. I wish I had taken a before/after photo.
Sweet dreams V.
