Hi

I have this small (15cm) vase with butterflies and trailing leaf relief pattern.  I was wondering if anybody can identify the marks which read either CR or GR and 79 in two separate circles.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cute moggy cat stoneware pottery jam/honey pot with marks CR & 82 for 1982. Don't know or recognize the pottery CR mark, can anyone on here ID the pot.

Thanks again.

I’ve come across this CR mark a couple of times before with 70s date stamps but I don’t know it

Finally got a label for Stapleton House Pottery but can’t read the surname. Kinkley or Kirkley?

There's a Colin and Ruth Kirkby at Stapleton House, Presteigne.

Ruth Kirkby was once a potter but more recently a botanical illustrator:

That’s great, thank you Most Excellent


I'm sure this CR mark is for Colin and Ruth, as the decoration is very similar to Stapleton House Pottery, so I've merged the threads.
