Poole Pottery 1960-1980 Part Two

....how unusual ...may be worth more now!

I regularly sell them for a fiver!

Yes.... but they don't have a fake stamp do they! that makes them rare!

He told me via ebay messages that he had relisted it. I told him to bin it as it should be taken out of circulation. Also the reference to the 'clear backstamp' in the original listing seems a little too obvious and I wouldn't trust the seller.

sorry they are all large but i will work out how to do thumbnail pictures.

both 10.5" studio plates . the darker one is the later studio mark for 1964-66. the other is the early 1962-64 studio mark but also has the triangular tool mark.

the one on the left seems influenced by Tony Morris' town planning designs

very much his style but unsigned so we will never know for certain

Very impressive Lee ... there's some great Poole stuff being posted on here in the last few weeks, so obviously it's out there if you are prepared to look around ...

yeah , the street plan come from the US so in the end it cost around £100 but still a bargain.

already done. it's the green coloured plate posted above

It is by Tony Morris without a doubt. He left many unsigned.

but some of the girls who worked alongside Tony were 'heavily influenced' by his designs, several piece like this have been presented to Tony by hopeful Tm collectors looking for provenance of only to be refuted

The back also has an impressed triangle near the rim used on trial pieces. That would make the attribution more likely.

I've had this one for a few years. 8" with TV backstamp also unsigned.

Here are another couple of chargers from my Poole Studio collection (1964-66) 14" and 10".  The larger one is by Robert Jefferson and is pictured in Andrew Casey's book 20th Century Ceramic Designers (page 328).

wow I have drooled over the pic in that book for year, well done!

I've had it for about 15 years. I think the influence was drawings/prints by Henry Moore.

the book state probably by Jefferson, did you confirm this?

The person I bought it from was a consultant for the book. He had previously shown it to Tony Morris who had said it was one of Robert Jefferson's pieces.

good enough for me

I reckon that the impressed triangle is simply Guy's mark.

So I bought this vase, it seems to be an onion vase shape #9 from the early or mid 1960s. Yet it looks different than most of the pictures of other such I've seen. The glaze is rough, and it stands a tiny bit over 5" high, and is around the same in widest diameter. Thanks in advance for any additional info you might give me. :)

Squash...looks nice, one of the Poolies will comment soon, be aware that this post may get moved. Look for it in the Poole thread there are several so if this post seems to have been deleted it's not - they just have to  keep things tidy.

Thank you -- I was wondering if I should post it in the Poole thread but it was so long I wasn't sure.... I will keep an eye out.

you do indeed have an onion vase 1962 - 1964
