Re: Could it be Linthorpe Art Pottery?
I have already handled this piece. I'm 99% sure it's Bretby pottery.

Only 99%? Interesting… had a look at Bretby and see what you mean. The spill over on the base looks the same. I can’t find this shape though, looks a bit Dresser esque, did he design for Bretby? I know he did for Ault

Found one on the V&A website. Attributed to Henry Tooth for Linthorpe. It has the same drip glaze.

Well if it had a Bretby mark I would say 100%!
As far as I know all Lithorpe was glazed underneath as was Ault.
The Blue glaze is slightly unusual for Bretby, as for the shape, well they
registered thousands of designs during their existence. I have, or have
seen many art pots with just this England mark, which is in the Bretby book.

Ok, fair enough, I’ll go with Bretby and keep looking for that 1%. Thanks dd.

Can’t find a single Bretby vase with this distinct single colour drip type decoration. They’re either mottled, blended colours or monochrome glazed. I’m only going on what I see and wonder if this may have been an early experimental piece??
