vase painted with figures, horse and deer, lascaux caves style decor main
I have had this beaker shaped pottery vase for quite a while, which I have been unable to identify where it is from and who made it or even how old it is, regardless of previous searches and I am asking here for help please.
Is is painted with figures, horse and a deer and there is some writing on the base looks like DELOR or DECOR AD
It is 7¾" tall 5 5/8" diameter at the top 3¾" base diameter

I suspect the base says Decor Main. It's decorated with cave paintings, so my guess it's a tourist piece from Lascaux in France.

as far as i know there has been some lascaux inspired pottery workshops in vallauris

Another option is Italy, the signature below the deer looks like it a bit. Many Italian potteries decorated their pieces with deer, horses etc. However the French clue sounds more realistic here.
