Poole Pottery 1960-1980 Part Two

Hi Everyone,

I am not certain about this signature, nor which range this bowl would have been produced in?  I have another Guy Sydenham signed same shape, but cant find this signature in any of the id galleries.  I thought Ruth Pavely at first, but the f seems to go the wrong way.

Any help would be appreciated

well it's a very nice piece of Delphis Lynne but the monogram is too messed up to be sure who decorated it

Hi Dan, yes I couldn't work it out, and there is no Poole stamp either. Rather odd. Looks to be quite early I think from the colours, yes?

yes it's from the 60's

Hi ,can anyone help me to identify the artist's mark on my piece of delphis and possibly a date too? I believe it to earlier due to the blue back stamp ? any comments would be greatly welcome . thanks Rustdaman

looks like Geraldine O'Meara 1966

Jean Millership and made in 1969.

A piece signed by Guy Sydenham in this shape would be very rare - any chance of a photo?

I would have posted it here as soon as it arrived anyway

But what if it got lost in the post???

Thanks Lynne - really interesting. I wonder if it was an early one made to test the shape before going into commercial production?

Morning Kurt. It may well be, neither of the pieces have a production model no on the base, and I can't seem to see the shape on the Poole Pottery Club ID pages. I am loath to call them "Studio" as they aren't marked as such, and the colours and patterns certainly look early Delphis, but all in all they are really nice pieces. The outside texture on the Millership is very attractive.

Got a bit of weight to them for their size as well.

Basically, I would much much prefer to keep them but oh well...

Hi Lynne

I'm at work so writing a bit from memory but the bowls are shape number 39 (the mid-size in a range of three - the large 10in ones are quite stunning) and produced only for a few years (from memory from 1968/9 to 1970/1). They are not "studio" - more mid-period delphis with production straddling the period when the Dephis range was simplied to reduce costs (which probably accounts for the short production period).

The Millership one it looks like a production piece where they've simply forgotten to apply the poole stamp and production number - I have a couple of pieces which escaped this process including an atlantis vase with no markings at all.

Kurt

So kind, thanks very much for all the info.

Can anybody give me more info on this vase please?

yes it is and a very nice piece.
