Hello,
can anyone identify the maker of this blue-green honeycomb glazed dolphin on a terracotta red pottery base? There seems to be a V or an arrow, and also a 1 (or 4) and a crescent (or dolphin) inside the base.

Might it be Blue Mountain? The early pieces were glazed inside.

Did Blue Mountain use honeycomb glazes?
Fosters Pottery maybe?

I don't think it is - but in shape, it looks (virtually) identical to one done by Anita Harris.
That front small wave curl is quite unusual (I think) and the same on hers.

Hard to tell as your pic is a slightly different angle - but I think hers have a slightly taller fin.
But it looks like one 'inspired' the other, if it isn't hers.

Having compared with an Anita Harris dolphin all the design features seem identical
