I have emailed Eeles Pottery to ask. I have seen other Eeles pieces with this style of decoration.

Well done Naomi, you were right - reply from Simon Eeles - it’s his work from 1983-1984. Seems he had an ES mark then.

Lol, £16.90, that says a bit about its age.

David Eeles. Unusual for it not have a mark, he was fairly efficient at his marking.

The Peter Dingley Gallery in Stratford was one the very cutting edge studio pottery galleries for a couple of decades. They did a number pf significant Hans Coper and Lucie Rie exhibitions.

But do not take the sticker off!!!! The very fact it has a Peter Dingley sticker adds to its value.

Re: Eeles family, Shepherds Well Pottery (Dorset)
I would agree with you very much Naomi. There is such a wide range of styles and decoration as so many of the family were potters. Equally it has a date range covering almost the whole historical era of modern British studio pottery since David Eeeles started in 1955. A much undervalued and under appreciated pottery.

It’s a lot nicer in the flesh. There was also a taller one with the same shape and decoration but without the red, but it had been chipped on the rim so I left it.

You need to look on sold prices in Ebay. The Eeles family have done terrific stuff but often it is not reflected in the value of it.
