Topic: Dartington? Or? Does anyone know the pattern name please?

[josordoni]

Oh dear, looks like it is going to be one of those unattributed things that are EVERYWHERE !

 

[Anne]

Don't despair Lynne, it may take a while but I'm sure it'll be named some time. Look at how many of the eye vases we saw before we found a labelled one and found they were Oberglas.   

[josordoni]

Yes, that's very true.

Oh well, on to the next what-on-earth-is-it from my shelves.    I have a few absolute monstrosities for your delectation later today....

Perceived wisdom....p 286 JMC 2007, this is FT. Contrast this with apparently same vase,
JMC 2007 p 324 Other Manufacturers, blamed on Dartington or W.S. Jones.
No help really I know, but that is maybe the current state of knowledge??

Marcus

Forgive me Marcus, I am not advanced sufficiently to understand the acronyms

Hi Lynne,

I think that JMC = Judith Miller Collectibles (or collectables  )

 

[josordoni]

Aha!  Thank you!  That makes sense...

Is that the DK one?  I get VERY VERY lost with Millers nomenclature.

Now to work out what FT is as I am sure it is not the Pink Pages....

[Della]

 FT = Frank Thrower 

[josordoni]

 :clap:

Thank you!  So he is Dartington anyway...

Looks like it may well be Dartington after all!

so much soul searching, so little soul....

[Sklounion]

Della,
Thanks for the interpretation.
Lynne,
My apologies, I was just attempting to be quick, without thought that I would perhaps confuse rather than clarify.
Regards,
Marcus
