70s unmarked studio vase with floral decoration by John Warren, The Cobb

Hallo all. Any ideas on age / maker / ID of this largish matt cream vase - or any other details? A gift from my Dad who's a proper collector. Can't find any maker's mark on it and he doesn't know.









With thanks.

A lot of UK studio potteries in the latter half of the 20th Century were producing these sorts of pots and just sticking paper labels on them. Hopefully someone has something similar with it's original label still attached so it can be identified.

thats a really nice doctor's bag

Naomi's right but I suspect that it is from the 1970s when stoneware pottery was trendy. The decoration looks very familiar but I can't suggest a name.

Yes, I'm racking my brains. I've seen a pot recently that had that crosshatch pattern in the middle of the flower, but can't remember who it was by. I'm wondering if it was one of the Welsh potteries.

don't be so nosey Niomi! Don't be looking in Dr Tom's yard

You mean Styleinvasion. He's the one coveting the doctor's bag.

Broadstairs Pottery?

A very belated thank you all!

Didn't realise a little map of my life was in the background: the table, pram, bag and book... hmm how could they be linked? The bag's for sale by the way!

O M G !
 Dr Tom had an affair with a young patient! She got pregnant, Dr Tom's wife found out and divorced him leaving poor Tom with nothing but a big old table that he got from his parents.
He now lives with the patient in a small house which the table won't fit in and Tom needs to sell all his stuff just to make end meet!!!

Might be Grayshott pottery.

Found something very similar, with a mark
