Peter Reynolds vase
Anne E.B.:
This is the clearest one. What I thought was an exclamation mark, is in fact attached at the top to the rest of the mark.
Please feel free to use this image :)

I think you are not wrong. Look at link below, where the same photo of the impressed initials is shown along with what I assume is the vase that bears that impression. That vase is clearly by the same maker as your Peter Reynolds vase.

The impressed initials are decidedly odd, with the J backwards and the R jammed up against the edge of the impression. I've not seen that mark anywhere else, either.
Thanks for the better photo of the mark on your vase, but I still don't recognise it. Perhaps it is a character from an Asian language?

I'm very green, Anne. It is beautiful. 8)
Anne E.B.:
Thank you Sue ;). I must admit when I first homed in on it from a distance (covered very quickly ;D) I thought it was possibly a Norman Stuart Clarke piece, as I have a small collection. It was the swirls that caught my eye, but discovered I was wrong - happily. It now sits with my N.S.C. pieces where it has pride of place ;)
I've tried rotating the impressed mark round to see if the motif resembles anything familiar, but I'm stumped. If I find out, I'll get back.

p.s. Love your Blog Trevor!

I think it looks like a cross between a good bit of Monart and Jonathan Harris' "Horizon" studio design - with a bit of its own unique character on top. Hadn't considered NS-C, but I can see that now.
Not trying to diminish Antipodean art at all - I just don't know enough about it to use more eloquent comparisons. I just have to make do with the best artists I know of on my/our end of the planet. ;D
;) I know *that* distance that gets covered very quickly. It seems to last forever though, as my fear that somebody else will get there first is over-riding all other perceptions. ;D
