10 inches across the rim, could be the competition of the time :)

I would say they were the same maker; the fish are too similar

The mid section on the rim frill is also similar.

Have a look at page 41 of the John Walsh Walsh book.  There is a bowl on the Crushed Strawberry catalog page - middle row, right most - that appears to match your piece (except for colour).

Another nice piece.

Thanks Chris and Sid

Sid I do have the book and its a perfect 100% John Walsh Walsh ID.

Chris yours is also illustrated as well and was sold as Electric Blue as illustrated in The Pottery Gazette, November 1883.

Thanks again Roy
