Topic: German Vase - Manufacturer?

[tedj]

Trying to identify manufacturer and period of manufacture for the attached vase.  Made from dark clay(reddish) like Roth, marked simply germany like B & D, with number 516 nothing else.  Seems to be drip glaze with gilded lip.  any ideas?

Thanks for the tip, I had seen that site earlier (that is where I got the D B idea.  Checked it again and I see some other dark clay potters.

An area that I am totally clueless about. Wonder if I have any?
