This is the jug it was in, think that could be a JW on the base - so the card might fit the jug!

That jug looks typical for NZ pottery. Very Nice.
Very little about John Wineera on the NZ groups; just some mentions about kiln building with Mirek Smisek

I think the spiral is his mark as it's on the card and a single one the jug too...

May I share it with the New Zealand groups? They're putting together a photo album of NZ marks

Hello . . I was searching for some public info on John Wineera and came across this site . . . I went to high school with John and we were friends to his death . . . Yes, he bought Mirek Smisek's pottery after Smisek's death and became a very skillful potter himself. I have some of his work and some photos of his work displayed during the occasional "open day" he had. If any one is interested I could send some images of his work . . . Charles ( I am currently living in Levin - and getting on in age !)
