Mary Rich cat (same shape as her owls)
Edited to add that Mary has confirmed she made these cats (and owls) as kiln fillers (hence the flat shape) in the 70s or 80s.

Here's a tiny teapot of Mary's. I wonder if this is also 1980s...

It looks earlier to me with the cane handle - they seem to have first been used in the UK in any quantity during the 1970s.

Brown ridged pot straight handle m mark - early Mary Rich
by Baytree October 7th 2017, 4:00 pm
I am new to this an I think my first post didn't work...I have two pots that I a trying to identify both with clear marks ( impressed) on the base. I will try again...
This one has a much rougher texture and more rustic look.

Mary Rich at Art in Clay 2017,
This is the work she is famous for, and which she has been doing for a large part of her career. The domestic items from this thread are her earlier work.

Again, thanks to all posting all these great and useful pix.
I have never been to one of these fairs, most of it leaves me completely cold,
However I would make a bee line for a Mary Rich or a Geoffrey Swindell's
pitch and instantly empty my bank account.

From an auction a few years ago. Mary rich really is quite an underestimated potter.

Mary Rich Bowl
by benwilliams April 17th 2021, 2:37 pm
Just checking this green-blue porcelain bowl I’d Mary Rich and not Micki Schloessingk.
And would it likely be 1990s, predating her gilded decorative work?

It looks like something Mary would have done to me but I would think earlier.

I have checked back through CPA books and it is most probably from the middle to late 1970s.

Thanks for checking, Studio. I’ve had one or two pieces before her gold lustre style but not as early as that. Thank you for your help!

Isn't that the mark for Micki Schloessingk ?
