This is Akro Agate. The mark is a kind of rebus: a large A with a crow holding agates (marbles) in its talons: "A-crow-agate" The company made lots and lots of marbles, their mainstay, along with children's toy glassware and small planters, flowerpots, puff jars, etc.
thankyou Paul71 for the information:)
