Re: Richard & Susan Parkinson
Thanks for posting that ...there are some supa rare pieces there and thats not including the seven figures. I bet all goes for x2 the top estimate.
Re: Richard & Susan Parkinson
Hmm I'm keeping hold of my small collection for the time being.
Including the (above) plate I bought of you Dave, way back when!

Yes. and the early lion/unicorn also, some do not stand the test of time 

Re: Richard & Susan Parkinson
no I wasn't comparing with a specific Sydenham mermaid, all his mermaids make the parkinson one look like it was made by a child

Further to my suspicion there is an undocumented Zodiac
series of plates. My "Saggitarius" plate is shown earlier in this thread.
These two plates are by Susan Parkinson, from
the March Wooley and Wallis sale. (pix on my own site).
Quite possibly Gemini the twins.

Maybe Aries the Ram?

Hmm Dan, As the Parky items were slip-cast moulded, it's a bit of an unfair comparison. It wasn't so much about the pottery itself,
more about the design, and the humourous abstract art-work, particularly on the "flat" items like the plates and chargers.

Re: Richard & Susan Parkinson
It looks like model 33 which should be 10 in high. Try shining a torch into the base,
if you can see the light coming through it's porcelain. Cinque ports was earthenware.
Haven't seen the g mark before though.

Re: Richard & Susan Parkinson
Thank you denbydump, light does shine through it so looks as though it's porcelain. The g remains a mystery :)

Re: Richard & Susan Parkinson
I’ve seen a few single letter stamps on Parkinson animals. They might be date codes
