Dartington Pottery

no it has no connection to Roger

the signature belongs to Donna Cockram and the design was one the the variations of Hay Meadow such as Charlotte's field or Charlottes garden.
It would be good to document the design names on the forum as they no longer appear on the old Dartington website

this is a really pretty very shallow dish/charger and measures approx 11" across
there looks to be a stylised A underneath and I cant find it in any of my books - does anyone recognise the mark or pottery?
many thanks

Dartington Pottery I believe.

I haven't seen that design before so probably a rare piece

Many thanks for the I.D. :) It really is a lovely thing and an unusual shape. I had a look around to see if i could find a possible artist with no luck yet.

I have been trying to identify the potter of this 5 1/2 inches jug and have now found one very similar attributed to Janice  Tchaelenko and one vaguely similar attributed to Marianne de Trey, but can find no other images by either similar enough to confirm.
Any thoughts and suggestions much appreciated, Thanks John




       

the impressed mark is for Dartington,I don't see a potter's mark?

There is no potter's mark Dan, I was hoping someone may recognise the decorative style as I can find no examples of either potter which are similar to this other than the 2 attributed pieces, neither of which are confirmed attributions

I had no idea she was at Dartington before the 90's?

that makes far more sense to me

Marianne de Trey wasn't really connected with the Dart Pottery later to be Dartington Pottery.

She had been Chair of the Dartington Pottery Training Workshop that had preceded the pottery but was not involved in the day to day activities. The actual pottery was started by Stephen Course, Peter Cook & Peter Hazell in de Trey's old workshop and it is likely that this pattern came from them or one of them. I will check through some old Ceramic Reviews when I have time.

Tchalenko never actually worked there but produced some designs for them, as she did for Poole.

butter dish and lid with uncommon pattern, possibly Janice Tchalenko design

an example of the Peacock design on a square dish

Dartington Pottery Bowl decorated with Blue Rose pattern
23.5cm high, 31cm diameter.

I just bought this Peacock Design vase but as we have had several in this thread already I'll just post a pic of the base marks
I haven't seen the Sue K paintress mark before but she was at Dartington in 2002

Hi

I am new to the forum and hope my photos are all ok.

I have a pottery vase with an unidentified mark on the rim of the base.  The diamond pattern vase has different finishes with matt and glossy panels.

If anyone could help me identify the pottery or any other information I would be very grateful.

Thank you
Diana

Hi

That was quick! Thank you very much. Do you have any idea how old it is?

the design was launched in 1996
