Eric and Meira Stockl

Hi - I have this impressive large bowl with a Raku style glaze and an unusual painted monogram - as usual hard to read - a bit snake like but there looks to be an E and perhaps and S and a D but very hard to read and not even sure which way up to read it! - any ideas please?

Hello
Picked this up yesterday-I really like it but cannot work out the mark at all...no other marks/clues!
Does anyone recognise the style or glaze type?
Thanks as always

Dear Forum,

Attached 3 pictures of a glazed, stoneware bowl with handles.Well decorated. Impressed maker's mark to base which I would be grateful for some help in ID'ng.

Diameter of bowl - 23cm
Height - 8cm

Thank you in advance...

These two small art pottery canisters came as a pair. They both have the same mark that looks like an elongated S with possibly an E and a D incorporated at either end.

The larger of the two pots has what looks like adhesive residue on the base which has obscured par of the mark.

Any pointers gratefully received.

It's so lovely to see people still appreciating my grandparents' pottery. Not much of it survives in our household, my grandpa broke so much of it in his later years...
The stamp on the bottom is an S with an 'e' in the top half and and 'm' in the bottom, for Eric& Meira Stockl. I took a photo of the last business card I have of theirs to make it clear what his stamp was meant to be.

That’s great, thank you
