Candleholders S&P HT & MD - Stephen Pearce Ireland

by **RVsaid** December 29th 2012, 12:10 pm

Hi

There were three of these and the third one held the clearest mark of S&P or something very close to it. The two larger had the same initials whilst the smaller has MD. Does anyone recognise them?

Just lucky. Spotted one of their white plates with the wavey edge and brown spiral on the weekend. The dots between the S&P looked like a shamrock and a quick search of google for Irish potteries led me to the right one.

2014-11-30Any help in the identification of this studio pottery vase would be much appreciated. I cannot make sense of any of the marks on my own as of yet, after many hours searching for information. It is 5 1/4" tall and 5 3/4" wide at the mouth. Thanks everyone for any help!

The faint SP mark with a shamrock between the letters is for Stephen Pearce's Shanagarry Pottery in County Cork, Ireland. The PF will be the initials of the individual potter. I'd guess that the ink-stamped S might mean it's a second quality item.

Thank you very much for the info! I really appreciate it!

This pot has a very striking glaze - it is fully glazed on the inside and has an S four dots and then I think it's PAB?

The AB will be a date stamp but I don't have a list of their codes.

Another of my 'is it hobbiest or professional' pieces. This one is probably an ink pot or brush-washer. It is well made and very simply decorated, and I'm guessing it's from the 1980s-1990s.
The MD is likely the potters initials, and I'm wondering if the triangle of dots between the S and P represent a known pottery or if it's just a hobbiest trying to 'big-up' a piece made in his shed (Shed Pottery? How's that for a generic term for hobby pottery pieces?).
