Just bought - vase 12" tall - in heavy lava with glossy red and matt black glazes - multi coloured decoration with portraits in white - Italian - no marks to base but signature to bottom - can anyone make out or in fact recognize maker of this vase?

Hi - I agree it looks very much like San Marino - it has no mark except to the base (signature) - from reading the thread it could also be Melior or one of a few Italian factories - it is matt black to blank base. I wonder if Walter (author) can confirm either one way or the other?

I just googled Capua which looks likey as a signature and it comes up a region of Italy - it appears they had potteries and still manufacture tiles for export.

These kind of vases frequently have names of several different regions of Italy, because their were meant to be tourist ware.
