Re: Ambleside Pottery
Jealous , do you think they are all 100% individual or did they make just a handful of each? If I decorated that it would be hard not to make a few in that pattern
Re: Ambleside Pottery
Wow! Where on Earth did you get that gorgeous piece.

I have had several fish of this size in the last decade or so and all have been different in colour or pattern design…..i would think that there would be duplicates of patterns though….

Re: Ambleside Pottery
Hi all. I’m trying to find both the design name of this dish - if indeed it has one - and the maker. A very helpful member (Philpot), informed me the signature was that of George Cook?. This little dish belonged to my late parents and I’m guessing they bought it in the late 1950s or early 60s, but don’t know for certain. I think it’s delightful. It measures 3¾ inches across and I’d love to find more pieces in this design. Any information gratefully received. Many thanks. P.S. I’m not sure why my photos keep turning 90° right ! Sorry about that.

Re: Ambleside Pottery
The little dish is as you have been told from the Ambleside pottery first set up by George Frederic Cook but this is not marked for him……the pottery was founded by him in 1948 and ran until he sold it as a going concern to the Jackson family in 1968….the pottery closed in we think 84…..from memory……the design is from the workers head…..if you look back through the posts you will see quite a few piece of the handpainted ranges…..covering flora and fauna to dragons and vikings and the puritans which we know was designed by Price…….i don't recognise the workers mark off the top of my head but will look at the names i have and get back to you if its listed……it’s a great little collecting field….and a lovely little piece….

Re: Ambleside Pottery
Thank you very much for your detailed reply. I’m a complete novice at pottery collecting, but I absolutely love this little dish and can’t wait to find more, albeit not necessarily by this worker if we can’t identify them ! I love all of the Ambleside designs that I’ve seen so far and love the sound of dragons and vikings ! I’m looking forward to seeing items in other members collections and to learning more about this pottery. Thanks again
