Hideous smiling pig - Nina Davis or Neil Alcock

Pot pourri holder? Vinegar / oil bottle? Who cares? Best thing about it is the cork.

Impressed mark on the foot (trotter?) SD or CSD. Not sure why I want to know the potter unless it's to send hate mail for creating such a kitsch monstrosity. Three years at art college, countless years honing their skills to produce this. And to think that I spent 30p buying the damn thing   .

End of whinge.

Nina Davis. U.K., but now based in New Zealand

Are you sure about this? Everything I can find online by her is the epitome of taste and artistic integrity.

Hahaha, that was my reaction, and coming from such esteemed parents, this seems a little incongruous. I know that marks change over time but her current mark is totally different, too.

I guess everyone has an off day.

Seems it’s more likely to have been made by Neil Alcock. I’ve found a number of my Nina Davis marks are actually Neil Alcock’s, and he was also at Winchcombe so some of the ND stamps accompanied by the Winchcome stamp may also be by Alcock
