Pottery identification help

[BeckBerube]

I just picked up this nice vase at an estate sale. Can anyone help me with identifying the maker. It is signed but the marking is faint. It looks like 7-8 characters long and I'm guessing it ends in ARD but I'm not positive. It also has the numbers 1670 and 16. Thanks for any help!

Possibly a J. B. Owens 'Feroza' vase. If so that makes it turn of the 20th C up to 1931. Very collectible stuff.

Do your research. Not "life changing money" but might be worth a few bucks.

The style is very close and that is about the age i was guessing. But looking at J.B. Owens marks online and none of the ones i can find look even close to this mark. I don't think its worth a fortune but i would still love to figure out the maker.
