It's part of his early standard ware range

Re: Robin Welch Bowl Age Help Request
What 'standard ware means, Is that for several years after he started his Suffolk pottery in 1965, he had a team of assistants making uniform pottery in thrown, jigger and jolleyed techniques. This produced a substantial amount of identical items, over a fairly wide range.
So pottery with this sort of mark on is probably not made by Robin Welch himself. But by a person in a team of potters. In a similar way that an item labelled Bernard Leach St Ives standard ware was not made by Bernard Leach.
Below is a link to page 4 of our Robin Welch thread. Scroll down and she will see a photo of a leaflet advertising the types of Stadard ware they mase.
