Re: Briglin Pottery
Thank you so much for all that - brilliant! Have you thought of using a site like lulu.com to publish your research? I've used it to print my catalogues, very easy and no cost involved.
Round 'fungus' bud vase - Briglin
Someone must know what this is. The base shape makes me think Briglin, but it's a lighter brown than their usual dark brown clay. No impressed Briglin mark. Might be a tiny mark in the centre - G maybe - but I think that's just an artefact of manufacture.
3" high, 3.75" diameter.

Re: Briglin Pottery
The base is very like my mug, with the turned middle and white glaze.

Re: Briglin Pottery
The nipple on the base might point to Briglin. Other pots have traces of a 'button' of clay in the middle

Re: Briglin Pottery
OK 22, will post further photos asap. Note the bottom on your example Naomi - the thing that gave me doubts on mine was that the base did not have the more pronounced rim that all the Briglin items I have handled seemed to have.

Re: Briglin Pottery
I'm sold.
3rd/4th detail pic, see the way the lines 'drip' and the glaze goes all droopy and globular. I would post you new detailed pics of an Autumn (apple) goblet that has similar glazes....but can't put my hands on it so I've posted an old photo - does this look good to you and Naomi?
As for the bases they had so many people making stuff it's probably not strange that they differ.

Re: Briglin Pottery
I think so. Only thing confusing me from the photos is whether the flower decoration is sgraffito or brown glaze. I'm assuming its sgraffito which would be Briglin. If it's brown glaze then I'm not sure.

Re: Briglin Pottery
Hard to tell on the decoration Naomi, but running a fingernail over the lines you can feel a ridge at some points, so I am thinking it is sgraffito ....in which case, taking 22s comments into account as well, I am more confident in calling it Briglin. Thanks for your inputs.

Re: Briglin Pottery
I picked this pot up today - if it has a maker's mark it's been obscured by the glaze but it's unmistakably a piece of Briglin Pottery and I think it's one of the most beautifully decorated pieces of Briglin that I've come across.

Re: Briglin Pottery
Yes it is. Quite a few pieces are seemingly unmarked, as are many in my collection,
but to our advantage of course!

Re: Briglin Pottery
Denby, your skruffy cat is quite scarce, interesting, white clay is probably 50's, but vsn extend into 60's. Colours look good to me but would expect a cream glaze? Crazing on the glaze?
Potwurm - look good to me, this would be later, nice crisp base, 70's similar to honeysuckle pattern perhaps?

Yes the glaze is cream, the flash lightened it, and it's crazed, the mark won't photograph.

Re: Briglin Pottery
A very fine collection there Jerry. Many of the animals do nothing for me (the middle cat in the third photo mad me laugh - now that one was made by a trainee) but your collection of vases is stunning. The whole Briglin gamut is there. They seem to sell well on eBay now and look a good investment.
Are you still collecting them? Are good examples harder to find now?

Re: Briglin Pottery
Hi Yes, still pick the odd one up, sell on most of the cylinders and the leafy Wax-resist
stuff. As we know many are unmarked or unclear, so you can find them still.

Re: Briglin Pottery
I know, I know ashtrays.... I've been squirreling away Briglin ashtrays, no one wants them an- are all the smokers dead? But the early ones are beautifully decorated. As time goes on they still follow the same formula with the duck egg speckled blue and vertical striped black exterior but it's obviously just a lesser copy. Once we get to the mid 70s then they are just churned out and brown
Examples above date from early/mid sixties up to mid 70's
90mm small
130mm medium
200mm large
250mm mega (empty once a year!)
I have more.... but can't find them

Re: Briglin Pottery
Dan you are right, if I ever sell them I will call them 'pot stands' - I suppose all ashtrays will go the same way as button hooks, vesta cases, candle snuffers and chicken bricks which in this modern age have no earthly use.
