Stoneware jug JB

A stoneware jug with nice glazes, impressed JB. The style of the letters, the J larger than the B, with seriphs, corresponds to
Julian Belmonte (not to be confused with Julian Bellmont), in the book, but nothing like his normal work.

I don't know the potter, but could the mark be IB?

There does seem to be a distinct curl at the bottom of the "J".

Doesn't look like the same mark, but maybe he changed it.

He's on Facebook. Seems to prefer white glaze.

This teapot has the same (unidentified) mark

Thanks CB, yes well-made items.

I'm sure I've seen another one with initials in the same font very recently on the forum but I can't find it. (Naomi, with your memory, do you know where?)

I wonder if there was a group of potters who worked together and used letter stamps to mark their work.

Looks like the same mark, and looks like IB rather than JB
