David, Perhaps you are confusing WEKARA with Wallerfangen which was part of the Velleroy & Boch family of factories. Wallerfangen wares are most often found in blue and white. I have a prospectus published in English by Villeroy and Boch, dated 1893, that covers all of the factories, with pictures of each, their products and their individual marks. It lists such small factories as Wadgassen, Merzig and Schramberg, but no mention of any WEKARA. WEKARA might have been a distributor of Villeroy & Boch products, but so were a number of other companies that were as much a part of Villeroy & Boch as WEKARA.
