Alan has now given permission for copies of the marks for Aldermaston appearing in the publication 'Alan Caiger-Smith and Aldermaston Pottery 1955 - 1993' to be uploaded to the site. Please would somebody let me know how to do it!

We ought to make it clear Naomi that this wasn't the mark that he used when he was in partnership with Alan Caiger Smith at Aldermaston but the mark that he used later.

Found this one the weekend and I'm pretty sure it's Aldermaston Pottery.
From the table above, I believe the monogram is that of Elizabeth Frith Powell

Alan Caiger-Smith and apprentices, Aldermaston Pottery - Page 2 Empty Aldermaston Pottery Vase - Sam Davis

Post by r-and-f October 25th 2012, 3:31 pm

Not sure if this should have been posted on the Aldermaston Pottery thread, but I hope someone can help.

This 25 cms tall albarello-shaped vase is undoubtedly from (or very closely associated with) Aldermaston Pottery. But I can't find a matching monogram on the very helpful chart of potters' marks posted at https://www.20thcenturyforum.com/t3346p15-aldermaston-pottery.

It would be nice to think that it's by Alan Caiger-Smith. Did he ever forget to do the circular squiggle at the end of his monogram?

Alan Caiger-Smith and apprentices, Aldermaston Pottery - Page 2 Alderm10

Alan Caiger-Smith and apprentices, Aldermaston Pottery - Page 2 Alderm11


Problem solved: I contacted Andrew Hazelden who was very helpful and has identified the vase as being by Sam Davis, made at Aldermaston between 1987 and 1991.

This is a link to the Alan Caiger Smith's studio Auction sale at Mallam's when Aldermaston pottery finally closed completely. Its very interesting for the comments Alan Caiger Smith makes on the individual pieces, and prices of course,which were high!

If anyone is in Reading, Berkshire (near Aldermaston), then the Town Hall/Museum has a permanent display of Aldermaston. Some of the pieces are very large indeed.

"Forty of the pieces here are from the collection of David Castillejo, Alan's principal patron. Other works include some that Alan kept"


Museum entry is Alan Caiger-Smith and apprentices, Aldermaston Pottery - Page 2 896643 FREE Alan Caiger-Smith and apprentices, Aldermaston Pottery - Page 2 896643 and you can just walk in when they are open (see link below). You'll want the first floor 'Atrium Gallery'. There is a glass lift up to the where the goods are and the Museum's Postcode is RG1 1QH. Well worth a visit. Most Excellent

Alan Caiger-Smith and apprentices, Aldermaston Pottery - Page 2 Empty Small 5 inch Aldermaston bowl unsigned - confirmation pls

Post by RVsaid December 5th 2013, 9:08 am

Hi

A little 5 inches across and 3.25 inches tall bowl. The decoration is saying Aldermaston to me however it is not signed to base. Base has a raised rim with a swirl inside.

Could anyone indentify the maker/artist please.

Yes it's by one of the Aldermaston potters, although, without a mark it's difficult to say by who, or if it was made before or after Aldermaston closed.
Possibly Ursula Waechter or Laurence McGowan

Edgar Campden cereal bowl. Not sure what all the other marks are around the AC monogram, or why he'd bother on what is otherwise a very ordinary little bowl.

Hi all, couldn't help noticing the aldermaston marks page from the book is shown twice. I don't have the
book, but I wondered if there was actually another page, but page one was posted twice by mistake?

HAZELDEN Andrew 1984-93

McDONNELL Myra 1992-

I think it was meant for Pork dripping (as opposed to Beef dripping)

Alan Caiger-Smith and apprentices, Aldermaston Pottery - Page 2 Empty Jane O’Connor

Post by NaomiM June 12th 2014, 10:31 pm

Jane O'Connor  ( not Edgar Campden )



The circular part of the mark is in 2 separate arcs which was a characteristic of Janes'.  Also I note the design is floral, which was a theme that Jane pursued when she did her own stuff at Aldermaston.

She would have made it in 1979 or very early in 1980.  (not 1978, when she started, as she was probably not let loose on such pieces until she got into the swing of things)
