Signed on the edge of the heel with the monogram.

Bibliography:
In the book "L’école de Carriès" by Marc Ducret and Patricia Monjaret, les éditions de l’amateur, 1997. We find on page 111 in the text: "The Fascination exercised by Jean Carriès having aroused many vocations, it is possible that to express a deep creative desire Georges Hoentschel was initiated into the arts of the earth in the workshops of Montrivaux (Carriès workshop). But the management of a dynamic company and creative thinking must have left little leisure to carry out additional activities and, in particular, to devote himself to pottery.
For these reasons, and in the current state of our research, it does not seem risky to us to advance that during the period 1895-1910 the majority of Hoentschel stoneware was manufactured by the workers of Jean Carriès with the assistance of Émile Grittel. ".

And also: a similar piece is in the Petit Palais - Musée des beaux-arts de la ville de Paris, attributed to Émile Grittel, which would confirm the work with Hœntschel.
