Oh dear . . . . . now isn't that embarrassing!

I'm clearly not learning very fast, Naomi. You identified a mug by Richard and Barbara Wright for me only last week!!! Embarrassed

Hi, I was given this small studio pottery vase and was wondering who made it. It measures about 100mm in diameter and 50mm tall. Thank you for any information.

Do you think the mark is a reversed b with a p or a tree

by **NaomiM** March 1st 2017, 9:55 am

It's the one I usually say is Gosforth Pottery because it's the reverse of their mark, but I really need to verify that

by **NaomiM** March 1st 2017, 9:58 am

This is their mark. Maybe the R is for Richard (Dick) Wright?

Thank you all, I live in Northumberland so a Cumbria pottery would make sense.

Just found another one with the same mark and label, so it seems they have swapped the mark round. So Gosforth Pottery it is then Excellent

Good evening all.
This bowl has wonderfully clear marks, but I cannot clearly identify them! The nearest i have found, so far, are John Bew or John Brooke, but i suspect I'm just being optimistic!
Can anyone offer a more realistic alternative?
Thank you.

By Dick & Barbara Wright, Gosforth Pottery. Sometimes their mark is the other way round. I’m guessing the R stands for Richard (Dick) Wright

Your a star Naomi! Thank you.
