Featured window shopping

It looks huuuuuge. Is that your slavver running down the window?

 

nah....he used to have a load of vintage pin up photos there, don't know what it is

 

a good buy i think, looks an interesting studio pottery piece

the piece that mr boland liked was the potters wheel he made the pieces from (supposedly)

haven't checked who it is yet, came from the same place as the leach teabowl(said bob)

There are terracotta Medieval kings and queens a bit down the page, but not nearly as nice as your lady on horseback.
Halfway down the page are two very nice figures on horseback, but your lady is more beautiful.

Several glazed vases etc on ebay and etsy.

 

awesome thanks AJ, looks interesting but varied work, some i like

did like the sound of this

"though Horseman went on ebay recently - too hot for me unfortunately

 

Lady Godiva before she took her famous ride.

 

ooooooo.............i've never seen her BEFORE the famous ride

 

He seems to have produced a hella lot of mugs and jugs. I can't find anything similar by him. This doesn't look to be his typical style albeit my preference. I stumbled across Peter Lubach while searching for it too who produced some interesting work.

really like that, tell you what it reminds me slightly of in one word MORPH

 

Oooo I love her Charlie ! Shes even better than Id hoped .

 

Thanks bud she's certainly got style, hard to photo though when on a hard surface for some reason

got something to do with the lines of her arms and the base line

 

very elegant Charles........ nice find !!

 

thanks mate

i'm wondering now if the clearance was of a serious potter collector, and that wheel was significant

but he did say he's sold some in the hundreds recently so

i know with me he says a price he knows i'm comfortable with (or will say yes to)

 

intricately painted/decorated pieces; from images looks possibly cold painted.

very interesting, thanks tallcakes

i think i do prefer them painted.....ish

 

am impressed how he's painted that tough, especially her dress

 

........not beyond the possibilty of paint.............. scrap that thought impossible

shall remain an oddity

 

I prefer her unpainted. This way the linear quality of the design is emphasized. Less fuss, more Modernism.

 

its (mines)definitely less (dare i say it) (sorry leonard) tacky
