Possibly Scandinavian? The only mark on the base is the one pictured. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Mary Kembery
Thank you. Sorry for thinking it may be Scandinavian, but we found it along with some Gunnar Nylund dishes.

Re: Mary Kembery
The decoration looks like Mary Kembery's mark rotated 90 degrees but the description of the type of work that she did doesn't really fit.
Is there a mark on the base?

Re: Mary Kembery
I agree... Not seen anything of Mary's that looks remotely like this piece. I have emailed her to confirm, no reply as yet. No marks to base (or anywhere else) Thanks

Re: Mary Kembery
Well done. I think I’ve seen some of her sheep pieces before. Thanks, Naomi.

I'd be grateful if anyone can identify the maker of this stoneware pot. It is about 17.5 cm in height and 16cm in diameter at the widest point. It has a clear mark on the base but I can't find it in the marks book. I found an identical mark on Pinterest but no information about who the potter was.. The scene on the pot is suggestive maybe of the Somerset levels? And maybe the mark is suggestive of willows growing in water if one is being very imaginative! Many thanks

Very many thanks
