Re: Cobridge
Dan - I could be wrong, but I think this is a stoneware range item (this does look to be a stoneware piece), Black Ryden was their earthenware range. Personally I never really like Anita's work - I much prefered Philip Gibson and Sam Johnson's work.dantheman wrote:the jug was made for Black Ryden in 2002
Your earlier comment of not having seen an un-initialled piece, is because that was a glaze effect item - which Justin never signed.
Yep - I also have a huge collection of Cobridge Stoneware (but not a single piece of Black Ryden). Shame it went out of production, although to be honest - I had started to go off it a bit by that time. The designs in the early days were different to Moorcroft and had a nice hard edge to them - I particularly liked the industrial images and fell in love with the product when I first saw the Cobridge bottle ovens image on the front of a mag (shortly before first launch). I went to most of the early collectors days and have some wonderful one off auction bits. But towards the end, the designs could just have easily been standard Moorcroft ones (IMHO)

Re: Cobridge
Thanks you are of course correct,that glaze could never have been fired on earthenware ![Cobridge - Page 2 867712](https://2img.net/u/1414/55/01/63/smiles/867712.gif)

Re: Cobridge
Just a slight correction Dan. Cobridge Stoneware was Official opened on 16th September 1998 (by Government Minister Richard Caborn).dantheman wrote:Cobridge was a sister company to the mighty Moorcroft factory and set up in 1997.
And certainly the first year of production the apple back stamp was 1998. I know items were produced many months before the offical launch, but not sure if that actually extended back to '97 although they were probably (I guess) doing a few early glaze trials back then.
Also, the corn cockle vase, whilst it was a collectors club item, officially it's the Founder Members vase and came free as part of the subcription. All other collectors club pieces had to be bought.

Re: Cobridge
Right enough of that, you really want to see some vases
A small part of my collection

but take a look at the back - I took it along to the club open day that year and had it signed by as many workers as possible (designers, painters, etc), as well as Hugh Edwards and his wife.

Re: Cobridge
Yep, a VERY NICE collection
I'm rather keen on Andrew Hulls work myself. Errol and Victor are ones I would still like to get. I don't see him in your pic's but Herman is another I really should get.
Do you still buy his stuff now he has set up his own company?
What back stamp does the cat have / when did you buy it? Perhaps it was produced just before they closed and so never got a chance to go into production? Might be worth asking Andrew about it, if it's one of his.
Guess I'll have to find the time to photograph a few more of mine now.

Re: Cobridge
Geoff - I think you mis-read my post. Victor and Errol are clearly visible and yes I did notice they are different shades- it is Herman I don't see.
2001 is mid range so could easily have gone into production. Does it have Andrews mark on it? I suggest you contact him and enquire about it, if it's one of his - or he might still know even if it isn't.
