There are two possibilities for the manufacture. There was a manufacturer in Lorraine. France who marked pieces Richard. Then there is Loetz who also produced cameo for a retailer and signed Richard.

On ths occasion we will opt for the Lorraine atribution. Firstly the vast majority of Loetx cameo pieces are floral. thre are very few landscapes. We have alos been unable to find any Loetx production in this colour palette.
