Winchcombe Pottery

Definitely Sid Tustin. Your remarks about lightness are bang on. He was a remarkable potter for many decades. The earthenware makes it quite old, as Winchcombe stopped using Earthenware in the mid 60's.

Thank you for the info, much appreciated. It’s a bit nibbled on the spout but still a privilege to have such a fine piece!

Joe Finch claims otherwise, going by the Facebook post.

A 6 in Sidney Tustin bowl with the usual nibbles.

Hi, just wondered has anyone seen a Winchcombe sake cup before? This is only about 4.5 cm high and 5.5 cm across , very delicate and light work for slipware I think. Did Sid Tustin make many more of these I wonder.

That's what I wondered, the previous owner called it a sake cup, it's too wide for any of the eggs I have , so I don't think egg cup but it's really nice.

Thanks, too small for sugar I think, it's really tiny, way smaller than this teacup , maybe these photos show the size better I've not seen anything this small from Winchcombe before. I did think egg cup but it's too wide

Maybe it could be a mustard pot mising a lid?

Items that should have lids would have an unglazed rim so it is complete.

I do not buy much pottery in charity shops nowadays. It is often overpriced, or just too common. But I could not resist this 8 inch Winchcombe vase at £4.99. Which is a completely and different style from what I am used to.  I presume this is from the modern Matt Grimett. era. It has two faces of the prominent design, and is oval more than round in shape. I rather lie it
