I have a huge collection of brown drip pottery marked USA on some and unmarked, too. Can I tell the maker?
Some Very Old pottery has no marks at all, but if you take it to a pottery appraiser, they can probably tell you its origin and value. You could also check out the library for pottery books. I have two pieces of pottery I know are over 150 years old. No markings on the bottom, just deep brown. I love them, wouldn't part with them.
