Kenneth Clark & Ann Wynn Reeves

I know I posted this in an iD thread years ago, but I thought it'd be good if it showed up here too. as it's closely related to one of the "Tree of Life" tiles: See https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/575123814893935874/

My first thought was Celtic medallion but now not so sure.
The diamonds down the middle are a bit greener than in the photo.
Unmarked

all the Medallion ware is the same design so not Celtic

Looks like Kenneth Clark to me.

Thanks - Alex

This is Kenneth Clark! 100%

Sadly no longer available :(

I've got x4 of the handmade tiles (not decorated blanks) by KC . A white geometric same a the orange one posted above, then a white one with black dimples and a green one with texture marks, as well as a couple of the painted tiles. If I come across them I will post. I an box somewhere

If anyone can remember the AWR auction of KC items after his death (2014?) can the please post a link?

Found this yesterday having no idea who Kenneth Clark was as a potter but thinking politics, as you do. It is a turned wooden canister with ceramic lid, signed as you can see KC 58 and has a paper label to the base reading Designed Made by Kenneth Clarke. Tenner well spent me thinks...

I found this lovely tile at a car boot today. any info would be great as this is my first piece

Wonder if it might be Denby. The clay and the "Made in england" stamp looks right.
He joined in 1956, but the book is rather vague on exactly how long he worked there.

Usually attributed to Ann Wynn Reeves
Is it a Johnson’s tile?

Nice one

Micknix asked me to put this up                                                                                                                                                         Ken Clark Ann Wynn Reeves  the sale at their house in Ringmer just outside of Lewes. I was fortunate enough to be invited to the house just after a local Auction house had been in and removed anything and everything they new to be of value for an upcoming sale.
I was invited to look at a collection of old 78 records which had belonged to Ann's father who turned out to be a successful orchestral conductor however the records were not for me.
The lady by the name of Angela who was Ann's niece asked me if I may be interested in any of the surplus which the Auction house had declined to take and I said I would like to take a look so she took me around the house. We then went into the living room and I was immediately drawn to a piece of pottery sitting on the mantle piece. It was a form in the shape of a house and it is absolutely stunning and is without a shadow of a doubt by Ann wynn Reeves. It is an incense burner.

Where they sold off many of Kenneth's estate items from his own collection
You may need to be logged in to the saleroom, still invaluable if you are collecting or looking into his work.

A dish which was presumably produced to commemorate the opening of the theatre in 1962. Unfortunately unmarked though the way it's produced would suggest a commercial rather than studio pottery. Not sure whether the decoration is moulded or incised - I'm guessing the former. The way the blue bleeds into the glaze reminds me of David Sharp at Rye. Any suggestions, please?

That is Kenneth Clark Pottery

Clearly a commission piece. Not seen one before.

Nice big dish 31cm long with impressed mark. I guess it’s 1960s. I’m putting another vase marked KC 72 on to the identify pottery bit. I bought them together and I think 2nd one is Kenneth Clark too.

Have I got this right? I bought it together with a 1960s Kenneth Clark dish - photos put in his section.
Is this moulded or thrown do you think?
