Welcome to Live Dialogue !!!

Can anyone help decipher this mark?
Question:
I'm pretty certain that this mark is old - late 1800's-early 1910.
Unfortunately, it either wasn't 'stamped' fully, or some of it's worn off.
From what my poor eyes can make out:
? ? DNARD, VIENNA, AUSTRIA.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advace for at least taking a look.
Answer:
It's Leonard.
Answer:
THANK YOU!, HattieMarie!
Thank you VERY much!

Answer:
Your age guess is right on. (1908)
From: Marks on German, Bohemian and Austrian Porcelain: 1710 to the Present by Robert E. Rontgen:
From page 455: P.H. Leonard, before 1890 - circa 1908, U.S. importer of Bohemian porcelain, on which the factory mark frequently was substituted by a Leonard mark. The company existed after 1908 a few more years as Anna B. Leonard. From page 267: P.H. Leonard
New York City
-circa 1908
importer's mark WTG Hattiemarie.
Answer:
Thank you BOTH!
You've both been VERY helpful!
Now, if I may be GREEDY!
Would a 10" x 7.5" x 2" (high) scalloped edge oval bowl with (22K?) gold trim be valuable - or a dime a dozen? (ie. approximately what price range? Lije $5.00? $50? More? )
No chips, cracks, crazing ore repairs - just a tiny bit of gold trim wear to a tiny portion of the rim.
I've attached a photo if that helps.

Answer:
Hi! I've got a handsome threesome signed and dated 1910 of arts and crafts style, painted/gilt c'sticks and tall vase, w/the "Crown/VIENNA AUSTRIA" distributor's mark but no maker's name.
1) I understand "Arts & Crafts" decorative artist Jean Nields painted designs like on mine for Anna Leonard after the factory "folded" ca. 1908. True? Is she famous - and do you have any info on her/or can you direct me to an expert?
2) How can I find the porcelain maker -- or since there is none should I just suppose these were rather modest quality "generics?"
3) Re pix - I meant "candldesticks" 'sted "vase" in one .....
Thanks!
