Louis Hudson, Cornwall

marked Lh , this is a hanbuilt coiled piece and therefore much rarer than the usual lightweight moulded pieces

Weighs quite a bit and has the coil to the inside.

This unusual piece is 19.5 cm tall x 6 cm x 5 cm and has an unmarked base covered with green felt. It appears to me to be a similar style of marking to some Tremaen I have seen.
Can anyone confirm this ?

I presume an early piece handmade

Very unusual to see an incised signature , usually moulded in the repeat patterns .

handbuilt lamp base

Any ideas please on these two vases, obviously same maker and neither marked. I have seen similar listed as Louis Hudson but nothing much to confirm this. Were similar pieces made by several different potters? Thanks John

Yes on one , possibly on other

Have just noticed pencil mark to base TG 13, does this mean anything to anybody please?

This appears to be very much Louis Hudson but I have never seen one with this high gloss glaze, is this unusual or not even Louis Hudson? The glaze is actually a deeper brown and more even than it appears in photo. All thoughts appreciated

Seems to have a treacle glaze finish. Maybe it's an early vase and they were experimenting with glazes?
Is the base the same as others with this pattern?

I think it's just been over fired

Sorry forgot the obligatory base shot, although there appears to be a mould seam on base and under glaze on sides it feels to have ridges or coils on inside.

It looks like someone has got hold of the moulds as this isn't a normal glaze for hudson pieces , they did sometimes use a white glaze , but never seen a finish like this one , deffo moulded .

I found this little bud/weed vase today.  Approx 14 cm tall.  There is a stamped mark but I have no idea who this corresponds to.  I did remove the felt (and then replaced it) but there are no other marks.

Isn't it Louis Hudson when his seal impression is a bit unsteady?

A vase I bought at auction today, no bids against me so a very good buy, it seems to be of high quality, the mark, both sides of the vase are marked, are clear but, to me, indecipherable, 19 is hand written on the base; can anyone help?

Have not seen this mark before combining uppercase L with lower case h, possibly both lower case. Did Hudson use many different marks?

 

Hand built coil vase, impressed LH mark to both faces.





 

I have now found 2 pieces and it's driving me crazy not knowing their origin. I belive they were made in the UK. Any help would be very helpful.

Louis Hudson cylinder vase

Three hand-formed vases, the tallest being about 23cm.

The one on the right isn't marked, but it looks like Hudson's work - Not by Hudson, see Jon Cheney - Admin

Five coiled vases. It seems like these were formed over a round pipe.
