Allan & John Hughes, Anvil Pottery / Wilan Pottery
Vase with sgraffito decoration, marked with the anvil, plus paper label.
Although still in operation, this points to it being a vintage piece.

Some of our pots are stamped with an ‘anvil’ on the base. Mostly, these were made by partner John Hughes (now retired)

Anvil Pottery large charger - I guess early 80s by John Hughes 'The Road of Excess Leads to the Palace of Wisdom' (Quote by English Poet William Blake 1757-1827).

I've had this a while in general use and just spotted the mark on the web. Is it Wilan Pottery?

Thanks for confirming Naomi, really do appreciate having your knowledge and opinion on hand. Kept meaning to id this, just been on the back burner as many are. I'm sure you've got hundreds of mystery marks simmering along.
