Picked them up at Hungerford arcade. Possibly by a local potter, but unmarked. Hoping someone recognises them.

I think they are by David Wright. Came across a similar pair, but with taller foot rims, on his blog & website:

I did buy one of the pots with a wire handle as shown on the front of his web site from him at Hatfield this summer and it is marked but I agree that the bowls from Hungerford do look very much like the bowls on the blog.

He was a very nice man (but I had just bought something) so I think that you should contact him.

I'll do that, studiopots. I've seen his mark on his website, and they may be unmarked simply because their bases are too small for the stamp.

I also got the impression that he had only started taking his pottery seriously in recent years (maybe incorrectly) so your bowls might pre-date that.

David Wright yunomi. Bearing his DW dw mark on the base. He uses a couple of old typewriter keys to make the mark.

Every one on the table likes it but, I'm not sure.

Well he is one of my favourite potters.

Hi everyone. Found this trio of 'gritty' unglazed stoneware bottle vases with thick drizzle glazes applied. They have a flavour of Japanese studio pottery, but not sure. There is an impressed 'character' mark of sorts to the base of each. Height of 10 inches. Anyone recognise the maker/origin of these? Thanks.

They’re by David Wright.

They will be 21st Century not that it is significant, except that in the title you have called them "Mid Century".

Lovely box with hazel ash glaze and wooden lid. The lid is cut from a wedge of oak from the base of a large tree recently felled in the local woods (might have been sweet chestnut; I’ll have to double check). I gave it to David at Windsor Art In Clay last year for his box lids.
