A lovely 11" table lamp - no Bermard Rooke stamps or marks but I'm guessing its by him.

I would like to share this photo of a Rooke pot with you. It belonged to my late mother-in-law and was found when clearing her apartment. Unfortunately another member of the family beat me to it. I was with my mother-in-law back in the early 1970s when we bought it from the mill in Suffolk. Gordon.

Never seen a clock before, 12 1/2 in high, I guess a later piece.
Just a standard cheapo quartz movement.

I could never see the appeal? Wallwork started off in that style however he soon moved on to better things but Rooke never did

They are "of the period" and it's probably the decorator's market that has made them trendy.

Bernard Rooke - Page 5 Empty New Rooke/Wallwork collector needs help

Post by alpeas May 4th 2017, 10:47 am

Hi there,
I've recently started collecting various Rooke/Wallwork pieces. I recently acquired this hand done lamp base, I have seen a Rooke version very similar to this but those look more basic, maybe from a mould? There are elements about it that strike me as more Wallwork like, (shapes, colours, textures). Any help or information you can give to put a positive identification would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

I would check the decoration on the sides against examples in the Rooke and Wallwork threads to see if you get a match

Could be either Rooke or Wallwork because at one point they shared a studio and some moulds. Base photo important because even if it's not signed, Wallwork pieces often have a concave base
