    I am looking for some help to identify this French dinnerware set. I have the full set which was a wedding gift to my mother on her wedding in the 1930's. I have looked everywhere but the issue also is I don't know if the animals on the back are donkeys? Mules? Horses? Sheep? Any help would be much appreciated.

      I have not been able to find this mark but will continue to look. One thing I will note, I believe this set was made prior to 1930. The tariff act of 1930 required all items imported to the US have country of origin marking. That simply means it would have been marked Made In France as opposed to just France which was common before the tariff act. I wasted a good deal of time researching more modern marks before the light bulb went off that I should be researching older data.My eyes are to tired today but I will continue to see what I can find another day.
