Hello everyone! I recently picked up this tankard, and I think it's defiantly Welsh. Tried Google search with no results. I can make out most of mark apart from the last couple on the end. Here are some pics below , and does anyone on here recognize the marks. Would kindly like help with the ID.

Much appreciated

There's no sign that they're still potting. The name Gwynedd was used from 1972 and the label looks to be 70s vintage, so I'd say it dates from around then. A lot of small potteries set up around then in rural areas through government incentives. Many are under recorded.

I've just found that Naomi identified a tankard with this mark last summer on the Forum, so your jug arrived 6 months too early.  Cheeky

Good afternoon,

Unfortunately I am unable to read the marks on this vase and I would appreciate your thoughts on the maker. I cannot read the impressed marks. I believe there are a couple of letters then cwmmwl and another mark which looks like J J or possibly D.

Any help much appreciated. (I have tried hundreds of permutations without success.) many thanks

Yes, Tucwmmwd; not sure why it's spelled that way.  I see it's been on this board before.

Place name, I think. Spelt in the Welsh manner.
Tucwmmwd Pottery Llanbedrog Gwynedd.
JJ for Janet Jones.
The Pottery was set up by Janet and Berwyn Jones around the 50s, and Berwyn continued running it in the 70s

Post by abstract*toad Mon Aug 23, 2021 5:12 pm

A nice enough jug. Clear mark, one I've had before, but couldn't identify.
Possibly RK, or PK. Also some impressed letters beneath that I'm struggling to make sense of.
Any help appreciated.

It looks like a word when you get used to Welsh - Tucwmmwd. Google search then says Janet Jones made/ makes pottery there.
