Looks turn of the Century (1900) Continental porcelain. Might be German or Austrian. Missing a lid. Can't tell from the photos if the decoration is hand painted.

Can't make out the mark on the base, sorry. Can you upload some photos that are in focus? Cheers.

personally, i think it's Japanese. The gold on red mark is found in many variations on Japanese porcelain, as is a Cherry blossom type mark. It has similarities to early 20thc noritake.

I was starting to lean towards Japanese. Useful to have a push in that direction.

thanks for all of the help i will keep looking my wife is driving me nuts with it lol. everything in our home is a country living style and she is willing to keep this piece as long as we can explain why a non- matching piece of pottery is in a country blue- white setting.

Isn't 'just because it's pretty' enough? Laughter
