David Leach
We do have a thread in this section for pots produced at the Lowerdown Pottery, which was set up by David Leach in 1956, but no thread for his individual work produced there or elsewhere by him so here goes.

Re: David Leach
The next geometric patterned stoneware vase was made at Loughborough during the time that he was a part time lecturer there during the early 1960s.

So a rare mark: -

Re: David Leach
Interesting that you leave the exhibition label on philpot. I used to take them off contemporary work I bought but don't anymore as I realise they are part of the history of the pot
Re: David Leach
How can a red sold dot be part of the history of a piece ?

Not only did Bill Ismay do that he also took photographs of where the pieces he bought were placed in an exhibition. He got an MBE for his efforts.

Re: David Leach
Actually I bought that one at the Rev Norman Smith studio pottery sale at Chichester last year. I have kept the label on purely in the desperately vague hope that I might trace what exhibition it came from.
