Is this porcelain piece Helena Wolfsohn, Meissen, something else?

I found seven of these lovely old leaf-shaped cups today.  My research has only confused me.  One of these is listed on RL as a Helena Wolfsohn Libation cup.  I read that Helena Wolfsohn possibly tried to make her mark look like the Augusta Rex AR mark.  I have photos below.   Is it clear to anyone here that these pieces are definitely Wolfsohn?  Thanks for your help.

 p.s.  would you list them together?

other studios imitated the AR mark as well.  the only thing that is certain is they are not Meissen

Helena Wolfsohn did use the August Rex mark. Keep in mind folks "Meissen" is a place like "Limoges". Lots of different Meissen potteries. Lots of different Limoges potteries. A good place to check out Helena Wolfsohn marks is https://linenail.jimdo.com/2012/07/10/helena-wolfsohn-dresden-marks

Nobody needs links to robot-generated website "content" especially if some of the passages were directly shoplifted from my website and mixed up with ad **bleep** like "Dresden Dresden Porcelain Electric Trains embossed postcards.". Nice try but bots are stupid.

I just read on a site called PM&M that in reality it was not Helena Wolfsohn that copied and used the AR mark (Augustus Rex) but her daughter Emilie and her husband. They were taken to court by owners of AR Mark and bankrupted paying the penalties. The stress caused Emilie to sicken and she never recovered. Look for this website for more details. It is very good information I found nowhere else online.
