Hello Folks,

I have had this little dish (4" diameter) for a number of years and I have not been able to recognize who made it ... perhaps you can help me here?

There are three possible clues:
1. The decoration ... I had a Colin Kellam mug with decoration not too dissimilar to this.
2. The 'cross' on the top side ... again, the Fournier book shows a similar 'cross' mark once used by ... Colin Kellam.
3. There appears to be a vague linear mark underneath ... which does not fit in with anything to do with ... Colin Kellam!!

... Unfortunately, I do not think this is by him! OK, neither is it Takeshi Yasuda ... so ... any ideas? Doh!

I think the cross stamp is just decoration. I think it’s by David Winkley, Vellow Pottery. I believe it’s a design he also introduced to Dartington Pottery in the early years - although it’s often attributed to David Leach

6” shallow dish.
I was expecting a Colin Kellam mark as glaze is v. Similar.
Mark looks like a curving diamond in a circle.
Apologies if I have shown this before. - My boxes of pots are chaotic at the moment.

Any ideas about the maker of this large stoneware charger (34cm Diam)? I wondered about Winchcombe briefly, but I think the decorated base rules that out (plus the lack of any mark). The orange highlights to the decoration are ringing a bell with me but I can’t place it. Thanks!
