    hi folks, these were all 50p car boot finds, having trouble finding things like them, or describing them

    finding makers might be hard, but thoughts on styles/origin/approx age would be helpful

    mustard bowl 6 1/2 inches - cant describe glaze type
    3 colour signed vase - 4 inches
    green jug - 6 inches - glaze type - inept ?:)

    any thoughts appreciated

    Brown, I'd call a treacle glaze or Rockingham. Second one is drip. Third.... oh dear glaze. ;)

    i actually found some great info on ohdear pottery

    the 'oh dear' pieces were made in a short period of time while the potter was recovering from a double cataract operation

    the pieces became more collectible for their naive charm, than his sighted pieces

    and so for future endeavors he took to re-bandaging himself

    but sadly he never was able to reach the incompetence of his oh dear pieces:)
