20cm high and possibly made in Holland. Any help to ID this piece is appreciated.

I love that shade of green Peter but I don't have a clue who made it

Thanks Dan. The current owner was told that it was from Holland c1900. I like the colors too.

Re: Art pottery pitcher
as with most studio pieces it may take years to find it's origins,the glaze looks more Canadian than Dutch though?

Re: Art pottery pitcher
I love the handle on that jug - I've no idea on it's origin either though I'm afraid.

Re: Art pottery pitcher
that would make perfect sense in terms of form and glaze

Re: Art pottery pitcher
Hi Peter,
I can't enlarge the picture of the bottom but can you see if there is a mark with the shape of an piramid (with horizontal lines and a vase in the middle) under the glazing? I have - somewhere in a box - a vase with an ear like that and it's signed with the pyramid under a layer of glaze. It also has the words 'Pottery Huizen Holland' around it. The mark stands for the Dutch Pottery 'De Driehoek' (the triangle), the factory stood in the town Huizen and started in 1935. Before 1935 the factory was situated in the town Steenwijk and was named ESKAF.

There are no marks visible on the base.
