Please help, I have searched hi and low and have not been able to find this mark. It has the numbers 8355, a crescent moon, a crown and another mark which appears to be a 5, S or G. Even with a loop, I am unable to see it. The mark is on a tea stainer with the bowl. Photos are below for your viewing. Any ideas?? --thank you.

Hello, if this reads like a 'K' within a 'G', then it is probably 'Gayer and Krauss' from Schwaebisch-Gmuend. They went broke a few years ago. Best wishes, Bahner
