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.

A pretty tea-bowl, with a tiny impressed mark on the foot-rim.

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

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

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

Style and initials say it is definitely Robert Goldsmith Selborne pottery

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...!

Not all marks are set in stone. so to speak! Potters who make a living solely on their work, have to produce a lot of it. So the marker is occasionally not to hand, they forget etc.

Re: Robert Goldsmith, Neatham and Selborne Potteries
The interesting point about Selborne pottery is that do see a lot of it around, in comparison with other studio potteries. How many people worked there I wonder?

Re: Robert Goldsmith, Neatham and Selborne Potteries
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.
