Pretty pink bowl with a clear base and initialled and dated. It stands approx. 11.5cms high x 17.5cms across. I did list this back in 2014 [ * ] but didn't have any photos other than the signature so I am hoping someone may recognise it this time. Thanks Chris

[ * ] Mod: The 2014 post has now been removed as this thread seems to have all of the needed info.

Hi Misha, thank you for the very quick response! According to Knottenbelt's info he moved to Brittannia Creek in 1983 so I guess this was made while he was still in Adelaide. I appreciate the help, I have been pondering on this piece of late and now the riddle is solved! Chris

The date cannot be 1982. As noted, he moved to Victoria in 1983, began the business with that name in 1984, and didn't start producing items with that shape until a few years later. I think it says 88.
