A nice heavy lidded pot with a glaze that seems a lot more modern than the pot itself.  S mark but partly obscured by a blob. celadon glazed, facetted pot - Joanna Howells, Tythegston Pottery Img_2097

I believe it’s by Joanna Howells. The New Ashgate Gallery has some similar pieces of stoneware by her, although her porcelain ware is better known.

I just cannot see that as a Joanna Howells mark. Hers is a very clear H with a J running down the centre of the mark and curving around the bottom. I've still got a Joanna Howells piece packed up somewhere,and have several others of hers before. That topped curve of a possible S is just nothing like anything on her mark.

It’s her TP mark for Tythegston Pottery; used on her tableware. She trains potters so likely to be by one of them, hence the lack of a personal monogram. It’s on her website.

Although Joanna had a couple of solo exhibitions with me in the Harlequin Gallery, Greenwich days and showed her first stoneware at the last of these, I had lost touch and knew nothing of her Tythegston Pottery venture. It seems from the website that the production of pots such as this one began in 2012 and is a range of functional wares produced by her and her students.

Thanks NaomiM! Would this be from her Tythegston Pottery with out  the TP mark, or her work before/personal wares.

Her standard ware has the TP stamp (and I think she has apprentices helping), while her own work has her personal mark

It looks like the type of things that she was making when she had a couple of solo exhibitions with me at the Harlequin Gallery in the first decade of this century. She worked alone then.

Before she made porcelain like this she had previously made pots with flower decoration but I have only ever seen photographs that she showed me and not the real thing.

How interesting, I have just visited the Harlequin Gallery to see if there any info or pots on the site but no records of any work buy her, though there are works of her online on other sites I found very interesting. Thanks for the post and input.

Best
