Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum.
I was wondering whether anyone might be able to help me with this bowl that my mum bought at a charity shop. Its diameter is around 25cm. It looks a bit Aldermaston pottery-esque but the potter's mark shows that it's not. I'm just curious to know who the potter might be!

Thank you very much in advance!

(Apologies for the stuff in the bowl. We were using it to hold some shards of a terracotta thing that was knocked over by some foxes.)

The mark may be for Ursula Waechter.
The decoration is more like her stuff and Aldermaston Pottery. The other two potters, McGowan and Hamid, developed more individual styles after setting up on their own.

Examples of their work can be seen here -

I think that it is Ursula Waechter, who has been back potting in the Aldermaston area since 2001 where her work is still very much in this style.
