Robert Goldsmith, Neatham and Selborne Potteries

This was on my watchlist - your photo looks much better than on EB - great movement like snakes in sack.

It's nice jug but the seller was clueless. Box was too small for the jug. If it had been earthenware it would have been crushed.

I love this design . He's not doing it these days, although he did do a few all red ones when I showed him a photo of one of his early jugs in the pattern at Farnham last year

Spotted a large plate by Robert Goldsmith, presumably of Selborne village

very unusual

Maybe made for a local event. I left it because I didn't think it would be very popular outside the village.

Harlequin pattern

I asked them for this pattern in green.

I thought at first that this may have been Russell Gibbs but on closer inspection the mark is definitely a PG not RG.

Picked this up today as i was attracted by the fine glaze and colour combinations, marked RG...but who is RG...?

Maybe just a hobby potter but it seemed too fine to my eyes!

Any ideas?

All comments appreciated...!

Thank you Philpot and Dantheman!

I had looked at Robert Goldsmiths work [because it looked so similar] but only found 'stamped' markings and not inscribed initials as in this piece.

Thanks again...!

Signed Eve ‘97 and stamped Selborne Pottery. I think the decoration is by Robert Goldsmith’s mother Eve

Do you really see a lot? I see a three or four pieces a year and it’s not far from me. He’s been going for a good 30-odd years, and produces a constant supply to several restaurants and galleries. Whenever I’ve visited he’s had one or two assistants but pots pretty much every day. He’s a nice chap.
Edited to add that Dave Owens was one of his assistants. I heard he now pots in London and sells from the market stalls.
