Hi, Yes you're right it's a piece made on commission in the Guerin factories during the time the son of Jules Guerin was the director there. The factory cloosed down in 1988...

Hi Ed,
Nice pitcher you found there!
I cant make anything of those runic symbols. But the signature and marks show its early Roger Guérin piece that can be dated around 1920. The made in Belgium stamp indicates it was produced for the international market.
All the best, Michiel

Just found out there is a famous statue of the "peeing boy in Brussels "belgium , so that's probably Guerin inspiration on this decor .

Le Mannekin Pis.

Nothing to do with your pot Ed, but it also inspired the signs on toilet doors in the 70s.
