Delan Cookson
Here's a small thrown porcelain vase - it reminds me of a granny smith apple.
Not sure when it was made, but he seems to be using blue glazes now...

I've read Delan works in Hayle, Cornwall. Does anyone know exactly where his studio is?

Re: Delan Cookson
A beautiful globular pot with flared rim by Delan Cookson, found in a charity shop yesterday.
"He is most widely known nowadays for his brilliant clear blue glaze; a barium/lithium recipe with a small amount of copper carbonate to produce the blue colour. It is semi-translucent and is sprayed so that varying thickness can be achieved to give greater or lesser depth of colour and allowing the white porcelain body to add brilliance to the finished pot."

Delan Cookson. He lives in Cornwall. Derek Clarkson really has two modes. Pieces that look very much Leach school, and Crystalline glazes. Disregarding the mark this is just not Derek Clarkson's style.

Thanks Philpot. I’ve got another DC piece somewhere - must check who it is.

One of Delan Cookson’s marks; D over C
A base photo would show the clay type.

Fantastic, I'm sure you are correct. I'l try and upload an image of the base for what it's worth.
But a closer inspection I can confirm shows constancy with his initials and the rectangle.
And another great Potter I had previously not heard of.
I'm going to try and ad a couple of his bowls to my collection.
Thanks Naomi.
