Re: Celtic (Newlyn & Mousehole)
I was trying to explain how to non pot people that we can get excited about relatively ordinary things just because they are extremely uncommon rather than inherently better work. So for example DD would get excited if he found a piece of Denby in a new colourway (experimental?) and for the non collector this looks normal compared to a common piece...but .....for the connoisseur (an expert judge in matters of taste) it's exciting!
Re: Celtic (Newlyn & Mousehole)
personally I tend to move on from the production stuff when the top man leaves a pottery, it happened with Poole pottery and with Celtic

Re: Celtic (Newlyn & Mousehole)
I can see one off colourways and limited editions being more collectable in production pottery - Anita Harris, for example - but its a tricky thing when it's a studio potter who's known for a certain style of pot. If they try something experimental will it be less or more collectable than what they are better known for?

Re: Celtic (Newlyn & Mousehole)
I like the base, I'm just not a jug man. Not seen the like before, unusual and interesting for me.
Re: Celtic (Newlyn & Mousehole)
I love jugs and have three similar ones but haven't seen that green tint to the glaze before

Dan, only just seen your archer on horseback.
Love it! and never seen one before either.

Re: Celtic (Newlyn & Mousehole)
worth looking at the later pieces in the Celtic thread, I haven't looked at late Celtic for many years so it might match a piece that I forgot

Re: Celtic (Newlyn & Mousehole)
the handles and glaze match other verified pieces as does the base
I even found a goblet with the little decoration inside
Perhaps a soup bowl?

Re: Celtic (Newlyn & Mousehole)
For what its worth.
I agree - clearly a Mousehole piece.
Nice find. Never seen a 2 handled sugar bowl before (if that's what it is).
The internal decoration isn't too uncommon and crops up on some items.
I see the archer has turned up again.
