I have the full answer for you, Paul, courtesy of Howard Seufer and Mike Hill (Quality Control Manager).
The blue Leaf pattern bowl does have the Fenton logo (Fenton in an oval cartouche). The logo is on the mould and so will be on the bowl, but as explained above, sometimes it can be very difficult to spot for various reasons. Howard has sent a photo that will show you how to locate it - the "Fenton" logo is on the underside, sloping surface of the marie (collar base), on the Leaf bowl - halfway between two of the legs.
Now it seems that the rose bowl was missed. Here's what Howard said: "The red rose bowl should have had a sandblasted logo on the base. That lot was evidently routed directly from the finishing department to inventory instead of moving to the logo imprinting operation. I talked with Mike Hill the Quality Control manager. He said that the logo should have been on both pieces.
Pulling inventory, he showed me that the shiny (not sand-blasted, satin finished) bowls had the script "F" logo sandcarved into the outside bottom. He is correcting the error on the existing inventory and checking the specifications for the proper routing.
Additionally, the logo was not in the mould's bottom plate; but should have been. Since this is not a Fenton-originated mould, perhaps it slipped past the mould shop's inspection."
Here are Howard's photos

And hopefully you'll be able to spot the Fenton logo on your blue Leaf bowl (you know where it is located now, but of course, it may be very faint).
And I'd like to thank Mike Hill at Fenton, and especially
Howard Seufer (Fenton expert) for their help.
