Not a lot. I got a "Pearl of Wisdom" for $8. My daughter spotted it for me. There was a blue bowl, like the Tepco bowl with the 3 Marquesan round head guys holding it up. But, it was different. The guys were bigger and the label on the bottom was rough, but said "ORLEANS" Japan. I have not seen this maker before. It was a very crisp mold. She said she had sold two other brown ones earlier, but at $17 I was not interested. Just wondered if there were other Orleans mugs out there and when they were made.
