Two bowls spotted at Hungerford Antiques Arcade. Labelled ‘by a local potter’ but no other info

One suspects that a dealer label with local potter means that it was bought from a local auction. Its also perhaps a specific invite for local people to buy them. Rather nice pieces. I bet they were not cheap tho!

Only £15 for the bigger one. In a cabinet so I couldn’t see if it was marked. Looked very delicate

Reminds me of that 'Frilly knickers style popular with Mary Rodgers, and Ursula Morley Price back in the 70's. It would have taken a good potter to make something as delicate as that. Ursula Morley Price lived in Radlett in Herts for a while. Not exactly local tho!

Looked like porcelain slip had been blown down a mould like a balloon or bowl
