Re: Please help me identify this pottery mark on a porcelain vase.

are you sure your piece isn't glass.  this mystery mark has been found on many glass pieces from ca. 1900.  I know of no attribution.

post a photo of the whole piece.

If this vase is made of glass, its a weird kind of glass.

yes, it is glass.  best guess by most people is that it is bohemian with decoration by as yet unidentified decorator.  some have proposed that the decorator bought blank glass from the Harrach company.

By the way, ty for all your help. Your use of the term "mystery mark" gave me some new ideas for searching the internet. Could it be Karl Pohl/Pfohl? He was a Bohemian decorator/engraver.
