SMALL HORNSEA DISH ID HELP REQUIRED
Any ideas please with date and designer of this small Hornsea piece. I am tempted to think designed by Clappison but there must be other designers I am unaware of. Thanks John

Re: Hornsea Pottery (E Yorks & Lancaster)
Definitely 56-62 backstamp. It is from the modern slipware range, and like you I have always assumed it is Clappisson. I have picked up quite a few of these over the years, mostly cruets in yellow with blue and black dots and blue with yellow and black dots. They were decorated using a rubber bulb with a nozzle then overglazed. This bowl is the only larger piece I have found.
Re: Hornsea Pottery (E Yorks & Lancaster)
1960 to1961 called Pageant design
Intresting fact Ash trays up to the early 60's were double the purchase tax so they were often called bon bon dishes to avoid it
but this was a proper ash tray
John Clappison was designing tableware from 1955 to 1972 although I havnt found a definate for pageant he did design the sister cascade 235 in this range so I would say he most definatly designed pageant
A pair of posy holders were also made to go with the ash tray
full range 234 pageant ash tray
235 crescent ash tray
238 posy ring
239 posy trough

Can't find in Hornsea book - figurine about 2.5" high - I sold this years back as Hornsea to a collector - I wonder if it actually is.

Re: Hornsea Pottery (E Yorks & Lancaster)
I dont know which hornsea book you have but if its the one by Brian Heckford, take a look at page 22
It included a greek priest The picture is not yours but look at the similaritys
Strangly this is the only mention in the entire book about greek figures but they did produce pieces at the Coryfo Ceramics Company for the tourist trade in corfu
There was a 50% involvement by Desmond Rawson in CCC after a chance meeting in cofu whilst on holiday and Hornsea personnel plus Desmond visited regularly to train and advise as they had no experiance at all in ceramics
The designs were greek orientated but definatly hornsey inspired
In 1980 they were producing white biscuit ware of which the greek priest was one
I would bet yours was a CCC product but everything down to the clay was Hornsey except for the name

Hornsea Coronet Jug
I picked up this Hornsea Coronet jug today, I believe production was restricted to 1960-61. Was this produced in large numbers over these two years or is it quite scarce.I am assuming this is a John Clappison design, would that be right?
Thanks John

Re: Hornsea Pottery (E Yorks & Lancaster)
Yes it is a John clappison design. He was there from 1958 to 1972 then again in 1976 and he was the driving force into table ware
(he designed the elegance range 3 years before he joined hornsea, probably because his mam and dad, Philip and Edith, were very involved in hornsea and had been for many years. They were the prime movers for the "come and see how we make pottery" which proved very popular)
Your jug is an oiler/vinergerette and unless you have the stopper elsewhere it is missing it
The ones that are hard to find are the early ones of the production that had a coloured dot at the end of each channel making it look like a coronet but this was soon discontinued due to production costs
the mould number was 204
There are thirteen pieces in the range should you decide to collect more
