Re: Briglin Pottery
Yes it is. Quite a few pieces are seemingly unmarked, as are many in my collection,
but to our advantage of course!

Re: Briglin Pottery
Denby, your skruffy cat is quite scarce, interesting, white clay is probably 50's, but vsn extend into 60's. Colours look good to me but would expect a cream glaze? Crazing on the glaze?
Potwurm - look good to me, this would be later, nice crisp base, 70's similar to honeysuckle pattern perhaps?

Yes the glaze is cream, the flash lightened it, and it's crazed, the mark won't photograph.

Re: Briglin Pottery
A very fine collection there Jerry. Many of the animals do nothing for me (the middle cat in the third photo mad me laugh - now that one was made by a trainee) but your collection of vases is stunning. The whole Briglin gamut is there. They seem to sell well on eBay now and look a good investment.
Are you still collecting them? Are good examples harder to find now?

Re: Briglin Pottery
Hi Yes, still pick the odd one up, sell on most of the cylinders and the leafy Wax-resist
stuff. As we know many are unmarked or unclear, so you can find them still.

Re: Briglin Pottery
I know, I know ashtrays.... I've been squirreling away Briglin ashtrays, no one wants them an- are all the smokers dead? But the early ones are beautifully decorated. As time goes on they still follow the same formula with the duck egg speckled blue and vertical striped black exterior but it's obviously just a lesser copy. Once we get to the mid 70s then they are just churned out and brown
Examples above date from early/mid sixties up to mid 70's
90mm small
130mm medium
200mm large
250mm mega (empty once a year!)
I have more.... but can't find them

Re: Briglin Pottery
they'd make wonderful plant pot saucers

Re: Briglin Pottery
Dan you are right, if I ever sell them I will call them 'pot stands' - I suppose all ashtrays will go the same way as button hooks, vesta cases, candle snuffers and chicken bricks which in this modern age have no earthly use.
Re: Briglin Pottery
Don't say the 'H' word I bought a job-lot and there were some unusual ones in it. I thought collectors may appreciate a group photo of the herd since I have them all out together. I have always scoffed about the Briglin animals but they do go for good money in today's market. They will be 'going' - I need to downsize. The worst thing is that I have more, somewhere
Re: Briglin Pottery
Never ever seen a penguin, and there may be another one in the middle of the huddle!
Re: Briglin Pottery
I can see three, I think, although one may be a mouse.

Is this a fake briglin owl?
I'm sure I read on this site somewhere that briglin animals have been faked.
Is this one of them, as I have not seen an owl moneybox with an unglazed face?
Thanks : )

Re: Briglin Pottery
Saw one like this recently with Italy written on the base. It was made by Bitossi. Which would be the more valuable, Bitossi or Briglin, I wouldn't like to say, so a 'fake' can sometimes simply be a copy and still have a market for it.

Re: Briglin Pottery
Thanks Naomi, not really bothered about its value its a piece I bought just after joining the forum. In a way its likely rarer if its a fake

Re: Briglin Pottery
Cant imagine why someone would fake a Briglin owl...
They are not especially rare or valuable.
They are all different Zippy.

Re: Briglin Pottery
Clay and stamp look like my Briglin pieces. It's a decent looking fake if it is. Is Briglin worth enough to be faked? It's still pretty cheap

Agreed, I think it's Briglin. They're not always marked.

Re: Briglin Pottery
This is marked front at the base, but I was referring to a thread I had read on this site about them being faked, I've found it now.

Sorry for any confusion caused.
I really know nothing about briglin animals and had not seen one similar without a glazed face so just wondered if it was real.
