Re: Denby Pottery (Derbyshire)
APT is actually the capacity of the cream jug 1/4 pt or 1/3 pt.
W would be that decorator's monogram.
This "Glynware" tableware seems to have been produced in massive quantities,
despite the work involved, as they are all hand decorated, and no two are the same.
They are all vaguely following similar design(s), which must have been instigated
by Glyn Colledge, as occasionally pieces do turn up with his facsimile signature.
At the time, hand decorated tableware, was considered "studio" pottery, and was
exempt from purchase tax.

Re: Denby Pottery (Derbyshire)
Thank you denbydump, I thought they looked like Glyn's but not quite right so that makes a lot of sense. The closest design I've found online was on Mr Pottery and it said it was painted on the same shape/glaze as the Greenwheat pieces, these also seem to be on that style/shape.

Two Denby vases,
Picked up 2 Denby vases recently in a job lot - I only wanted the Poole vase. Tigo ware vase is 7" high, is it rare ? Am I ok offering it for around £10 - 20 at my next Antique fair for a quick sale ?The other is 5" high, I'm guessing 1930's, it has a paper label and felt around the footrim which I assume was put there by a previous owner. Any idea what is. ? I'm sure DD will be able to help me.

Re: Denby Pottery (Derbyshire)
The Tigo ware is a TISZA (river) Syrup jug, pretty rare, nice to have the sticker.
Could you possibly photograph it separately, and add it to the Tigo thread for reference?

The other piece is an Orient ware 616 "Monsal" vase 1920s.

Help from any Denby pottery expert please.
Hello everyone
I bought this tea and coffee pots in a charity shop.
Both of them are Denby.
I done some research to see if I could find out the pattern and age of them but I can't find nothing with the same mark.
I believe to be early 1900's or possibly earlier.
Also I think that the flower decoration as been done afterwards.
Finally and in regards to crazing, is that normal to have Denby pottery with so many Crazing to the glazing?
Any help would be much appreciated
Thank you
Jorge
I did Create a similar topic before but I forgot to add pictures, therefore I'm creating this new topic.

Re: Denby Pottery (Derbyshire)
Hmmm interesting! "Denby art ware" is not recorded in the Denby book.
The impressed Bourne mark was first used in 1895. The pots are standard
Denby tableware shapes, so all correct there.
Thee flower heads look like "Impasto" decoration, thickly applied on top of the
blue glaze.
Maybe a trial, or a short-lived or abandoned range, possibly due to production
issues with the glazes?
Certainly never seen aanything like it.

Re: Denby Pottery (Derbyshire)
Yes that was what I thought, possibly a very earlier bourne piece and I did pondered the same it being a prototype or trial.
I do go lots of times to this charity shop and the guy who researches the donations told me that he thinks it is possible to be just before Denby start to be known?
The flowers yes have been applied afterwards as we can see the scratch into the glaze resembling the flower stems on the teapot, the coffee pot don't have that, also the coffee pot don't have the impressed Bourne mark, only the same Denby art ware print.
Definitely they are quite unique and worth a bit more research.

Re: Denby Pottery (Derbyshire)
Well, Denby pottery started in 1809, but didn't start to make what we would call
tableware until into the 20thC.
The first reference I can find is for a range of coffee and teapots is from a 1907
catalogue, and both these shapes are shown. So unlikely to be any earlier than
this date.
The "SILVER" shape teapot should have a round finial, and the coffe pot a pointed
one. Can you swap them over?
The first example I can see of "decorated" tableware, is the "Celeste" range from
1911, in an art-nouveau style.
So these are probably somewhere between these dates.

Re: Denby Pottery (Derbyshire)
Hello Denbydump
Thank you very much for your time and knowledge.
I really appreciate it.
Yes the lids can be swapped as they are the same size.
Now the only thing it still puzzling me is the "Denby art ware" black mark.
Do you have any ideas relating to that?
Finally as I'm planning to sell them
o
n Ebay hope you don't mind that I use part of your expertise and knowledge on my description, as I always like to be as transparent and honest as possible.

Re: Denby Pottery (Derbyshire)
Yes the lids look correct now!
As for "Denby Art Ware" I have no idea, as it's unrecorded. It's unlikely to be a trial
as they wouldn't have marked it like that, most trials are blank.
Again they could just be samples from an abandoned range.
If this had gone into full production I think we would have surely seen some by now.

Re: Denby Pottery (Derbyshire)
The Bourne Denby mark on this piece was the one used from 1930 onwards. So you are right there. They used a different mark from the late 40's when they restarted the pottery after the war. One of their Art Pottery range.

Re: Denby Pottery (Derbyshire)
Yes correct, probably late 1930s. It is very similar in shape to jugs in other ranges
from this period, I have had these before, but if it ever had a "Name" as such, It
remains so far unrecorded.

Thank you very much for your response to my post. It's nice to have my guess about the date confirmed - extraordinary to think that it is now around ninety years old, it still looks comparatively "modern".

Large Stoneware Bowl - Denby "Tibet ware"
Large stoneware bowl, 32cm diameter, 8cm tall.
The only mark is a stamped Made in England, which makes it look like factory output. That mark kind of feels as if it should have a Denby stamp to go with it. The clay looks right for Denby. There are a number of production faults on the bowl so it may have been a second and not got a factory mark.
Having said all that, I haven't been able to track anything down like it on internet searches.
I know there are some knowledgable Denby folk on here so maybe someone could help with confirmation and / or further information, or alternative suggestions.
Thank yo
u
in anticipation
