ID Help Please - Pair of Lidded Porcelain Pots
Hello again - Can't find maker in my book of marks, it look like A above an 'o' or 'd', as the mark is right on the base part may be missing.
The mark on the lighter pot is much less distinct.
Thanks guys,
Alan.

That's great, thanks very much!
Could they be ginger jars?

Re: Andrew & Keith Crouch - The Marches Pottery
Like the bulk of studio pottery produced today they might be based on a practical form but with no expectation that they are going to be used.
Without knowing the size saying what they are based on is difficult but ginger jars would be wider in relationship to the height, so they could be based on tea containers.

I see what you mean, yes tea more likely, they are about 12 cm tall. May fill them with my favourite Nilgiri!

Flower Bowl ID Needed - Andrew Crouch?
I was sure I posted this yesterday, but searched and no sign. Ah well
6 inches diameter, 2 inches high - mark A to base (see photo) - a quality piece and the glaze is beautiful. Any ideas.

Re: Andrew & Keith Crouch - The Marches Pottery
I had a lovely porcelain mug by Andrew once. And then I broke it ![Waaah](/users/1414/55/01/63/smiles/346936.gif)
Bought from Primavera in Cambridge last year.

Re: Andrew & Keith Crouch - The Marches Pottery
It's not a style or glaze I've ever seen him use, the mark also does not look quite right to me. (though the clay and foot seem to)
I've no better suggestion and also wonder if it's his, but I think you'd need confirmation by the potter or someone who knows his pots well to be sure.

Stoneware jug marked A - Andrew Crouch?
4.5 in high, nice glaze effects.
The mark is raised in slight relief, but is glazed over, so I've drawn it as I can see it under the glaze.
Can't make out a dot, but it is like the Avoncroft marks shown here, which in themselves, don't exactly
correspond with those shown in the marks book. But I'm not familiar with his range of work.

Re: Andrew & Keith Crouch - The Marches Pottery
Believe it's by Andrew Crouch, but the clay is darker than any I've seen.

Re: Andrew & Keith Crouch - The Marches Pottery
The Avoncroft mark and Andrew Crouch's mark are very similar, although the Avoncroft mark is generally smaller.
My money would be on this being by Andrew Crouch as Potty says.
There were a number of pieces sold at a well known auction house in the south of England back in March with a Geoffrey Whiting attribution that went for £450 + premium. Those were most definitely by Andrew Crouch so they can be confused.

Re: Andrew & Keith Crouch - The Marches Pottery
Thanks guys, There could be a C/O under the A, now I know what I'm looking for,
but being in a circle I would never have found that one.
Potty, I think my pix were a little dark, it's normal buff stoneware.

Thanks SP, nice and clear, that one looks raised also.
I'll scribble that in the marks book.
