Re: Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Pottery
The date is 1905-1914 but sorry, we are unable to give valuations on the Forum.
Re: Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Pottery
I think Adam Partridge is your nearest bet for valuation

Re: Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Pottery
A good start would be Wooley and Wallis in this link.
https://www.woolleyandwallis.co.uk/Search?q=WILLIAM%20MYCOCK
They are one of the major art pottery auctioneers in this country. Generally with these Pilkington lustre pieces the value is in what is going on. The amount of varying colours of lustre, the amount of varied and detailed decoration etc. The more there is, the more firings are needed, and the more expensive the final price.

Re: Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Pottery
Ksavv here is a very good explanation (on another pottery forum) of why the experienced are somewhat reticent to give valuations. It really is a minefield.

Re: Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Pottery
So true. so true.
The market for Pilkingtons lustre is a bit like that for Studio pottery. People buy the work of individual decorators, and particular lustre and decoration within those particular people. It can be a narrow and very specialist field.

Re: Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Pottery
Thank you all for the messages! I completely understand why giving valuations is tricky and many people would be reluctant to offer them. I have now got more information than what I had a few days ago, will contact the auctioneers that were suggested and fingers crossed the bowl to find someone who will appreciate it.
many thanks!
many thanks!

The Monogram is for Gladys Rodgers, an "R" in a shield,
if you rotate it 90 degrees anti-clockwise.

Re: Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Pottery
The registration number means that the design was registered in 1894.
I am not aware of an online record of the registration marks/numbers and the designers from this period but you could have a search, as I haven't looked for a while. One possible designer could be Lewis F. Day, who would have been freelance in 1894 but he did design tiles for Pilkington then before being put under contract by them in 1899.
The painted N could be the decorator's mark put there for quality control purposes.

Re: Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Pottery
The lack of a border at the top and bottom means it's a "Freize" tile, one of a set
that could be joined together, to make a continuous decorative border.
Often seen in fireplace surrounds, or wash-stands.

Re: Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Pottery
Looks like a 3, but you might need the Lancastrian book for more info.
