Simon Rich

Hi all

Having trouble working out who made this charming bowl with a SR stamp. Anyone seen it before?

Think it's Simon Rich, not 100% sure though.

I agree with Potty. Decor is typical of Simon's early work.

Pretty sure this is an early piece by Simon Rich

I wouldn't normally give this house, or even shed, room but the mark's a bit intriguing  - seems a bit elaborate for something so plain.

Almost like plaster / chalkware, it's white earthenware with a burnished matt exterior (looks to be unglazed) which marks easily and chips even more easily   ! Interesting mark on the underside - oval pad with a curly monogram which looks to be SR. The larger vase, pictured, is still intact but the smaller one - which has the clearer mark (also pictured) - became a bit chipped just through holding it.

Probably some foreign tat (not to say that we don't produce plenty of our own tat, of course) but any opinion would be welcome. Unless it's anything special it'll be going into the charity shop box - up to five banana boxes at the moment, the result of buying cheap auction lots for the odd item or two.

Raku vase. Looks like Simon Rich's mark. Narberth Pottery

Copper matt fumed surface. Sadly the colour never stays fresh for long

Thanks, Naomi, fount of knowledge as usual. Perhaps too good to offload to the charity shop - they'd almost certainly sell it for 20p anyway!

Well thrown Globe vase with blueish white glaze and black and gold lustrous type glaze (is this metal oxide?). I believe it was bought originally in or near Oxford. Impressed mark is just a bit unclear but may have an S in it. Had for years and never been able to find it.

By Simon Rich.

Great, so no Oxford connection at all! Good to know who it is.

A nice bowl I guess for hanging as it has a hole

Can anyone identify this maker's mark?
It's a nice set of 6 coffee mugs - the handles are set quite low but they 'work'?
Approximate age and pottery of manufacture would be nice to know.

Again,
Many thanks.

Might they be by Marg Hall at Winton pottery? Similar mark posted in another thread.

Early Simon Rich

Thanks again Naomi. Welsh is not surprising as they were part of a mixed lot at a local auction.

Crystalline-glazed vase:

Hi can anyone tell me who made this little vase please thanks Sarah

Yes, Simon Rich

Brill thanks for your help never heard of this glaze before yes it does look like his mark after looking up his work.

Yep, it’s a nice thing, I had a crystalline bowl and very nice it was was, Simon Rich for sure.
