Hi, I have this pot and lid that have no marks at all and wondered if it might be Winchcombe. Large unsigned pot - Winchcombe? Img_1010

Nothing about it suggests that it was made at the Winchcombe Pottery to me.

Not finding a match. Casserole pots are very difficult to ID without a mark.

Spookily I went out today and found a piece of Winchcombe pottery. I can see now that it's not.Large unsigned pot - Winchcombe? Img_1329

Obviously, your little Winchcombe lidded earthenware pot by Sid Tustin is earlier. The knob is a different shape to the larger tenmoku lidded casserole but at Winchcombe the handle on larger pieces was mostly a strap rather than a knob. When they used the knob on stoneware pieces at Winchcombe it was generally on smaller pieces and tea/coffee pots. They did use it on stoneware casseroles for a time but when they did that the lid fitted inside a raised part of the body like your small earthenware piece rather than hang over, as it does on your tenmoku casserole above.

Hope that makes sense?
