Yes, I saw that auction and did some googling with the backstamp.
Handwerk seems to be a common term in Holland.
Found one auction for an eggcup with the same wording as this auction too.
I think the decoration is awful and has nothing to do with Carpay, but I'm watching with interest.

Oh dear they sold for $40 and someone will think that they have some Carpay for that price Evil or Very Mad
Check out carlnsue comments that show up now that the auction has finished.
He is a serious collector!

I know little about Frank Carpay, but from the look of them, they were pretty amateurish sunny

Have a wee surprise for you later, will send on new topic when I get time.
