This is a small chocolate pot. I think the flowers on it is a decal with painted white
swirls on the flowers.
Now.... The mark on bottom...
It looks like it could be a HHR ,HR or HB
or.... maybe a fish bone LOL
Thanks for any info....

Why do you believe it is a chocolate pot rather than a small coffee pot?

I would have thought coffee pot as well. What I've seen referred to as "Chocolate Pots" have been a lot narrower and pretty tall. However, you don't say how tall this pot is...
As you know, chocolate pots can be valuable - but it depends on their origin and quality (of manufacture and decoration).

I think that's an H B in the stamp. Geez, I've seen it before. Where, I'll be back. Gotta go look now.

Seems to be a question if this is a coffee pot or chacolate pot....
I have been told chocolate pot, as I was calling it a T-pot..
It stands 7 1/2" to top of lid... It is about 13"circumference..
As you might have gussed.......I don't know beans about china/pottery..
I'm greatly depending on you experts to tell me, as I really don't know..
Thanks to everone...
Thanks paloma...You are the first to say they may have seen this mark....

Thank you so much for your time and giving me a name for this mark..
...How on earth did your friend find it? I have looked every where...
Did HULL use this stamp before or after writting it on? {Iknow another question }
I'm sorry.....
Thanks again......

No freakin way that's Hull Pottery. #1 They didn't use that stamp. #2 That pot (Chocolate/Coffee) is china, Hull produced POTTERY.
My best guess, and that's all it is, is that it is of foreign manufacture. I've seen the mark before, but although I have a great memory, it's short.

I think it's marked H K and that would be Hutschenreuther, Germany.
It looks to be from the 70's or 80's and I would think it's a coffee pot as chocolate pots have a much taller stature.

I vote for it saying " H-8 " which would make it made in Toledo, Ohio in 1953. ( Just kiddin' )

Chocolate pots have the spout at the top. This is a coffee pot as the spout begins at the bottom of the pot.

Thank you one and all...... I really appreciate your time and info...
(To whome it may concern} If they are checking this thread out..[LOL]
I have researched till I just gave up..
Max
I think you are right.. I looked at Hull and the style is much different..
Kiara... You may be right on HK
I have also looked at Hutschenreuther...
Couldn't find this mark tho.. All had written stamp..
You are so funny Kiara. ...... LOL

Just did a quick look at Chocolate Pots and I agree with anna about the spout but I think that is in the older ones. There are quite a few with the spouts from the bottom.

I have a call in to a friend who's pretty knowledgeable on marks. Meanwhile, I came across this definition by Harvey Duke in his Official price guide to Pottery and Porcelain.
In other words, it could be either.

There are numerous patterns for "Hk Germany - See Hutschenreutherchina" at Replacements. Perhaps they can tell you if it is or not.
This reminds me very much of the china from Germany that the servicemen brought home with them in the 1970's. Perhaps it was a factory stamp used only in Germany?

Thanks.... I have been to replacements.com
and looked at some of the Hutschnreuther.
No luck yet. Waiting on answer to email..
Don't know that I will get one..
You are probably right about factory mark only in Germany...
This has been a challange to say the least.
I know I have seen this mark before some where,but where??? LOL
You guy's are just great... This thread had gone over to pg.2 and I had just forgot about it......

I just researched the heck out of it and it is H-8 from Toledo, Ohio in 1953 and it is a syrup server.
Nah, still just kidding. ( too fishy )

Can't find the mark but I believe it is a coffee pot because the spout starts from the bottom of the pot. With a chocolate pot the spout or pourer is at the top of the pot.
I just had a beer and that is why I am so smart !

I apologise, The mark is not Hull. However there are 2 different Hull marks of an H. One is in a diamond & the other in a circle. The book is "1800 Marks of American Pottery & Porcelain" Copyright 1995 L-W Book Sales. I hadn't seen the mark until today. Only took Judy's word for it.
