This signature looks to me like it could be David Wall (of Tamar Glass). What does anyone else think please? Is the bowl typical of his work?

TIA ;)

David E. does have a piece of his work on his website, but he doesn't show the signature. Hopefully, he can help ;) ;D

If I can find it, I'll try and photo the signature, but it is very faint.

Post by: David E on November 30, 2007, 12:47:15 PM: The photo is very vague and the sig comes out rather indistinct and faint - I've sent it onto Anne anyway. But there are similarities to the signature on the base of my vase to Anne's. David Wall be contacted, it appears:

David Wall. Design-led, hand-blown, mostly functional glassware, from jugs & vases to scent-bottles, with strong forms & vivid use of colour, sometimes frosted. Also one-off sculptural pieces & lighting

Post by: Anne E.B. on November 30, 2007, 03:31:33 PM: Thanks Della 8). Always good to have a second opinion.

Thanks too David for the image ;D. I've compared them both and they are the same. Its quite a delicate piece, so may be its an early effort. I'll see what else I can find out but don't hold your breath about any book :o ;D I don't know enough words to write a book ;D

With 870+ posts, you have already written a book - I reckon if you just collect all your posts and images you would have the makings of an interesting book "The taste of Anne" ;)
