I have a porcelain Hutschenreuther vase with a Parisien scene on it in mint condition. It's about 15 inches tall, bulbous at the bottom, tapers as it goes up to the neck.
Many marks on the bottom:
Hutschenreuther Gelb
Lion logo
Bavaria Germany
Handpainted
Handmalevei
Made in Germany
19
L stamp
something lederer
price sticker from original purchase
This was purchased in Germany around 1959. Any idea as to the value?

Thus far, I'm stumped, and European porcelain/pottery is something I can usually find - -
But, I did find this Paris pattern by Hutschenreuther in dinnerware - Is your vase like this at all?

Also, D&B antiques may be searching this also - because he is an expert and an antiques dealer he may be able to interpret a price based on what the original was, and the age of item -
My apologies for not finding your item. KB :(

While thanks for trying - I haven't been able to find this exact piece anywhere on the Internet.
If someone can tell me how I can upload a photo, I will. Or when I find the time I can post it on a web page.
In the meantime, here's a description of the image on the vase. It's nothing like the one in the link you posted.
There is a woman looking out a window that has a red and white striped awning. She's looking at 3 people on the sidewalk. One is a man with a walking stick, a white with green polka dots coat, yellow plaid pants and a purple derby with a yellow flower sticking out of it. He is arm-in-arm with a woman who is dressed kind of scantily - off the shoulder dress - green and white striped bodice with a pink frilly skirt and green and white striped hat with a fishnet veil in front of her face. The 3rd person is a woman with a purple dress and a wide brimmed flower hat. Down toward the bottom are the initials m.l.
Thanks for any help!

Hi...........Izzy and KB........this is a porcelain factory in Selb, Germany established in 1814 and still operating. they are noted for their figurines and dinnerware. From your description, this is a mark used from 1955-1969. I would retail your vase in the $150-$200 range.............

Pictures, please!
Most particularly of the marks.

Thanks for the estimate Tim.
Can someone tell me if I can upload a photo of the vase - I don't see that option. Or do I need to create a web page and post the link?
Thanks,
Izzy

Little nuances in marks can make a big difference in dates and even the factory.
