Poole Pottery 1960-1980 Part Two

Thank you! It seems more sort of rough in look than the ones I've seen pictures of, with brighter & shinier glazes. Is this just a different artist's style?

yes it was the beginning of the studio department and experimentation was at a peak so all sorts of designs and techniques were employed
The brighter designs are more sought after but yours is unusual

Thanks, that is helpful. Do you have a recommendation of what is a good source to use to get a rough idea of value? (I'm assuming one isn't supposed to ask that here :)

no we discourage such requests as the floodgates could open and ruin the forum

Thank you, I understand, and I'm actually also interested in the piece for non-monetary reasons. :)

There are 2 shapes of onion vase the other is slightly less spherical. Values can vary so much and who are any one of us to say how much another person may be willing to pay for something. But with that proviso I would say that £80 is the very lowest value upto £100 + ( see how i've left the top value deliberatly vague ).

Anyone know anything about this piece.  A small trinket pot with the Poole Studio TV stamp on the base and just visible a shape number 73. My copy of the Hayward and Atterbury book only has model numbers from 1963 up to 53.

I've never seen another one. Is it a known model?

yes it's a sprayed glaze technique and the design was devised by Tony Morris,

It is in my 2002 edition H&A page 118. Shape No. 73 Powder Box 4" x 1 3/4".

You don't see them often.

Another Great Local Find ....Very nice array of Colours on this piece

Nice colours. I always found spear trays very difficult to display well so I sold the few I've owned.

Yes the "Spears" and the "Eyes" are not the best selling shapes.

Pretty good display! How do you get them to stay on the wall, Dan? I assume these (or similar) ...

Google 'The-Original-Invisible-Disc-Adhesive-Plate-Hangers'

it wasn't me who displayed them that way Nige but the disk hangers were used

I've fixed these 10 to plywood board with small hooks made from s/s wire...

Both displays look very good but also a great deal of effort just to display a few plates...

Excellent collection of spears cycladelic - very impressive!

great to see pottery properly displayed

I don't think any of them were ever mine but I've seen several come and go 2-3 times that I once owned.

Yes, I did a bit of work, but as  earthquakes strike quite often here, I needed a way to secure them well...



The above photo is of 60 x 5" dishes, plus a few Studio vases. There are more Poole pieces on boards behind the camera - a selection of 10" plates, shape 81s and 361s, plus those 10 spear dishes.

This fixing method allows me to change pieces around without any additional work as the s/s hooks rotate.

dream homes brought to you by Graham !!! simply stunning

I have never seen pottery displayed as well
