Floral Pot de Creme

This is a really nice pot de creme or pot au jus made by an unknown maker in either Germany or Austria in the late 18th or possible earlier 19th century. It reminds me very much of the Royal Vienna pieces I own but the mark is not one I can figure out. The little lidded cup would have been used either for hot chocolate or a meat broth . Both the main cup and lid have a nice relief design to the paste and both are hand painted with some nice flowers - a large arrangement as well as a larger flower and three small ones to the cup as well as a two smaller flowers to the lid. Superb fruit finial to the lid including an apple I think with its stem and two leaves. A bit of puce trim to the handle. The set is in superb condition with a little bit of wear to the finial. It displays perfectly! The cup with the lid in place is 2.875 inches tall and 2.125 inches in diameter. The underside of the cup is marked with a number 5 as well as two imrpessed letters - an F and either a B or an H. That combo I could not find anywhere but it is certainly German or Austrian or from the countries under their rule at the time. Please email me for more information or photos.
