Poole Pottery 1960-1980 Part One

8" diam plate - can't locate designer - any ideas?

Thanks Adam

the paintress mark is that of rosina st claire 1971-1973

just under 13" across and decorated by louise lazarowicz 1979 or there-abouts.

shape 57 deep bowl with the paintress mark for carole holden. measures approx 10.5" across

here is some of my ever growing atlantis collection, and with any luck the wife will stop liking the living glaze stuff and let me have more on display

this is my 2nd chrisp packet vase. standing approx 8" tall and 8" at its widest point

a guy sydenham atlantis vase. it stands approx 6" tall

here is another small atlantis vase. measures approx 4" tall

Just bought this Agean dish - marked AA (?) - any idea of that decorator?

Thanks Adam

i think it's DD for diana davis but DTM will let you know for certain. i'm at work and don't have my bible with me.

cheers lee

Fish as used for the carp plate by Alan White, trialling glazes.

Lovely colours on this #49 pin dish, footed rim. I am uncertain of the paintress mark as a couple seem to have used the three line mark.

The three line marks are interesting. I have a theory (unproven) that Geraldine O'Meara (1966) used thinner brushstokes than Shirley Campbell (1966 - 1969). Certainly all the pieces that I have seen with 1969 type glazes have had the thicker mark.
Yours seems to have thin lines so it could well be the former.
Whatever, it's a lovely dish

Thanks Gareth, I love the darker earlier colours. In fact any Delphis item with no orange in it gets my vote!

do you know when the taller foot was discontinued Gareth? We might then be able to exclude Shirley

You know Dan, I'd never really pinned the date down so your question has caused me to go away and do a bit of research!
From my own records it seems they were only produced until 1966. I have never had one that couldn't have been produced in 1966 and I have a wider footed one that has the Anne Godfrey mark for 1966, so it looks like the changeover came then.
The craft section only started in May 1966 so the narrow foot can't have been used for more than 6 months or so after that. Geraldine O'Meara was there in May I think (assuming she is the one named Patricia O'Meara by Leslie Hayward), Shirley Campbell must have joined later in 1966. Maybe she replaced Geraldine and inherited her mark - after all the mark was only to count how many each painted, not for our benefit!

so we can safely say the pin dish was decorated by Geraldine O'Meara

and we added a useful dating fact to the Poole thread so re sult!

popped along to newmarket antique fair on sunday and this is all i picked up. early angela wyburgh mark on the reverse.

These Aegean shape 32 vases don't come up for sale that often so I snapped this one up

Poole shape number 54
Please could you identify the decorators mark?

Sorry forgot the base

Angela Wyburgh 1969-1973

picked this up from a auction the other day. 1964-66 studio pin dish or 49'er

here is the other 1964-66 studio pin dish i picked up at the same time. very unusual i think?
