    on pic #4 i was able to find a blue D in script but that's all...at first i thought this vase was a delft because of the scenery and flags but after many hours of searching delft i could not find anything that resembled this vase...i was looking at pic #4 and with the zoom i was able to see a blue D...i started looking up pottery marks when i came across this site:

    old and sold pg 9 great britain pottery marks #52
    http://www.oldandsold.com/pottery/greatbritain1.shtml
    great britain pre 1815

    i have read that they used to put the soft paste items on a bed of soft straw to prevent breakage which could account for the unusual mark on the bottom...
