I bought this lamp base recently and was hoping someone may have an idea of maker.The only reference to potting I can find in Child Okeford is Jeremy Broadway who apparently made a decent living faking Bernard Leach and Lucy Rie Pots. Could this be the same person now working on own behalf?

Found this -

Elm House Studio carefully creates handmade pottery from Dorset and other ceramic products. Ceramic artist Catherine Broadway works from her home and Dorset based pottery studio in Child Okeford,

- but your pot is different from her current stuff.

I saw this after original post and agree nothing in common with my lamp. Interesting though she has the same surname as the Leach faker!

Usually when you marry someone you take his surname............... she was/is his wife.
