MC mark, David Constantine White

David died in 2011 after a long career, based since 1981 in Mytholmroyd near Hebden Bridge. Sadly I didn't come across his work until last year when I saw it in the Art Parade gallery in Saltaire. The owner told me they were selling his last pieces so I came back later and bought this press-moulded earthenware majolica dish. 3.9cm (height) 22.3 x 18.2cm (length and width). There's a lovely tribute site to him here  David Constantine White website.

Impressed mark to front of jug, like Michael Cassons on its side. Red clay. Any ideas?

Second one today, again red clay but this one has an impressed rectangular mark that is too filled with glaze to read.

Same Potter Dave , He died october 2011.

Cheers Ed, should've got that myself

Thanks in advance!

By David Constantine White. No explanation in the Marks book why he's signed this one David J White; I guess J is his middle name.

Hi

Here I have a large square multicoloured shallow, square bowl which also can be used as a wall plaque.

Appears to be acid resist technique - really difficult to make out what the illustration may be.

Measures 10.75" square and is approx 2" deep.

Quite a large & distinctive applied mark to base.

Any hep gratefully received.

Many thanks.

Thank you so much.

I'm not sure at all that it is by Richard Wilson, but it was purchased from the same seller who also had a small Richard Wilson jug, and it's the closest in style I have found so far.  Does the signature look familiar? Many thanks

You must have some photographic memory! Thank you.
