Dragonfly Handpainted Porcelain Bowl..... AMAZING

Can anyone help me with identifying this very pretty Bowl... There are no potter's marks but exquisite handpainted dragonfly and leaves would really love to know who made it - I adore it..







It's pretty isn't it?

A couple of things would put me off, that base is slightly uneven. If this is porcelain, then I would expect more. Then the decs look a little uneven, not smooth, not alacritous. Just my opinion

I think if you saw it in the flesh you'd probably change your mind about it..

The other pieces you have posted look pro, just not this one. Compare the foot on this one and the porcelain one you posted.

I'll bet you a pound to a pinch of something that this is a pro - :)

A better photo... :)

I have a few eric mellon's that look more sketchy than this... :)

I've just found out that the other 2 vases this bowl came with was by Ben Barker the other was by Rick Henham - so I'm pretty excited... This is probably a top South west potter too, other things in their collection included a Peter Lane a (possible Paul Barron) and a Geoffrey Whiting so I think good chance it's a good professional potter.

Naomi, decs in the trade is short of decorations. Not a ref to decals.

Building trade that is.

It could be by this potter - the work is almost identical, and is from a nearby location where the item was purchased - Maggie Andrews Porcelain...



I think it is a very strong possibilty

why not email her

Very nice emaail response from Maggie - but a dead end it's not her - the hunt goes on!!!
