Established in 1969 by Allan Baxter until his retirement. Making 70s style functional table ware with welsh words on the jugs, storage jars etc, for sugar, coffee, milk etc, and sgraffito dragons and applied decoration, and a few beautifully glazed pieces like this tenmoku jug.

Quote from Michael Mosse’s bio. in StudioPottery.com website:

Michael Mosse
....studied ceramics at Bristol Polytechnic in the late 1960s, but left college before finishing his course in order to pursue his career as a potter. Around 1970 he joined Tregaron pottery in Wales and has memories of putting endless dragons on endless pots.

Thanks Naomi. I was going to put it on the charity shop bargains thread but some French cookies thing kept popping up and put me off. A nice set of pots in perfect condition! Any idea how old they are??
