wow! i've never seen so much studio pottery in one place that I hate :con2:

What do you hate about them dan ?, these are some of the best studio potters ever , bernard leach , michael cardew , hans coper , lucie rie , keeler , this is what studio pottery is all about

I just flicked through them quickly but didn't get excited, I'll look again at a more leisurely pace tomorrow

I reckon it was the small boobies on the naked ladies. DTM is used to his GS mermaids I think :con2:

I was talking to Walter Keeler last week about a lovely,tubular,salt glazed,well coloured pot that was for sale on ebay.
'I don't know who made it' he said ' I have lots of followers' I love confident people

Maybe it was his wife

I like the Laurel Keeley ammonite and fish plates, and the Michael Leach Yelland coffee set, the Duncan Ross small bowl, the Rowena Kinsman casserole dishes with the fish and crab lids and fish plates, and the Peter Beard large blue vessel.

Otherwise it was all a bit brown for my liking.

I think it browned me out so I couldn't appreciate the great pieces like the Keeler

OK Fair enough comments , But I sometimes like to see the skill in creating these forms rather than the usual moulded stuff churned out factory style by the thousands, then slapping glazes on as some sort of icing on a ready made cake Yawn

Wow ed,you do understand the way I view fatlava stuff

You're absolutely right Dan it is , as is 95% of Poole and associates just decorative plates etc , not a lot of freeform to be had , still it would be a boring old world if we all liked the same eh

it would indeed ed but where did you get the 95% figure from?

Sorry 99%

bullshit ed,I have hundreds of Poole pots and more than 70% are hand thrown
