Re: 50p treasure
"A lot of bull" 50p item.. 50s/60s small footed dish...I liked it but did sell it eventually ..it went for quite a bit...It's by Stuart Bass-Exmoor Pottery..he's more known for his pie funnels which are highly collectable in the US
50p-Small ceramic dishes with PP inscised on base. Throught they look a bit Poole style but don't think the PP stands for Poole Pottery
50p Small Alum Bay dish-Jo Lester (son of Joe)
50p Modernist Jersey pottery
50p John Clappison Hornsea Mug

Re: 50p treasure
These small dishes are slightly different with the largest beiung 9cm diam and 3 cm deep. I think they may just be some demo/trial pieces for a studio potter, but they have retro feel and are quite attractive.

Re: 50p treasure
Not all 50p but my favorite item was (the very large studio pottery jar)
Most expansive item here was £2 I think.
A few bits are just for gifts, but most are to keep until I get bored of them.

Re: 50p treasure
Just found out, the large jar is Alvingham Pottery, it measures 16 1/2 inches high, anyone ever seen one as large as this?

Re: 50p treasure
Alvingham was my local pottery and I haven't seen a piece that big,that shape or that decoration so could be unusual or rare

Re: 50p treasure
Thanks for the reply Dan :)
Looking again at the picture, it does look a lot larger in the flesh, by far my largest hand thrown pot

Re: 50p treasure
Not exactly a pot, but the best 50p I ever spent was only about 6 months ago when I popped into a second-hand shop for a look, The owner had just returned from an auction and was struggling to carry some old leather suitcases in. He told me they were full of books, which he hadn't wanted to buy but they came with the luggage, so if I wanted any (he hadn't even looked through them) they were 50p each.
I came home clutching several, but the bargain of the bunch was a 1996 hardback copy of Goodens British Pottery and Porcelain Marks, the full 765pp version complete with dust jacket. Original price was 45.00.

Re: 50p treasure
I like the randomness of the salt & pepper
I paid £25 for that book potty p and thought it was a good buy
Below are some things I just liked or wanted to find out more about the maker or both.
Pirce range 30p - £1.50 (the pair of tankards)
So far I only know the maker of a couple of the items, so if anyone knows
Potty.
