Identifying Figurines?

Figurines of young girls.Found these adorable angels at a very upscale estate sale with lots of French and English vintage and antique items. They average about 4-5 inches tall. All have variations of the same mark. I've searched eBay and used Google Lens -- nothing similar. I would so love to know more about them. Thank you!

My grandmother had her own kiln and ceramic molds. She made lots of different items, including angel figurines similar to these. So, I'm thinking from the initials on the bottom, that these were made by someone doing ceramics. I searched and found nothing by any companies, that did markings like yours.

You could probably ask the person who had the estate sale about them. I cant find anything

Thanks for the response. I asked at time of purchase, but no luck. I am truly stumped by these.

I could be totally off-base but here are my thoughts.
I'm not sure about this mark being a brand name as it really appears to be handwritten. Perhaps these were someone's initials?

I have been to many 'upscale' estate sales that had many items that did not appear to be in the same class as the home and other items.
It's possible someone living in this home just really liked small angels and collected all sorts - expensive or otherwise.
Hopefully, another member will be able to supply more accurate information.

I found a figurine with a similar MEM mark community.ebay.com/.../20919456
In 2014, the owner of the figurine asked for help identifying the manufacturer, but no one was able to help. I do not think that's possible.

They are really very cute. I think that since there are variations in the manufacturer's mark, then most likely these figures were made for more than one year. I'm still digging, but I think the manufacturer is not well known.
