BeeHive Mark - Is it authentic?

Hi ,

I recently acquired this piece and really know nothing about it. Can you tell me about this piece and if the Beehive mark is authentic?

Thank you in advance for any help you can give me on this item.

Royal Vienna and the Beehive Mark: Real or Fake?

If you are like me and love fine porcelain, I am sure that my frustration when finding a great piece with the “beehive” mark is all too familiar. Over the years I have seen so many versions and on so many lovely pieces, it is hard to keep those creeping doubts from screaming at you: Fake!! Fake!!

What's This?

Hi,
I'm having a difficult time trying to figure out who made this little spill
vase. It's a circular mark, with "Made in" at center and "USA" on the bottom. The maker's name appears at the top inside of the circle, but is too smudged to make out. The first letter appears to be a C or G, there are 8 letters or characters. The third looks like it might be an ampersand.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!
