[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 429205, member: 51"]If you could find another with that "not watertight, liner suggested" label, might be a confirmation, too. However, be warned, there are a lot of Tony Evans pieces out there, and not sure how well things are selling. On a quick search under completed, out of 99 pieces, just 17 sold. With a few exceptions, seems like his animal pottery is what is mostly in demand. A year or so ago I had a piece similar to the one shown above, the pinks and blues and quite abstract, but mine was larger with a bit more movement to it. I snagged it at my local GW for $8.99, having already ID'd it on my phone and finding a similar piece that sold for $149 on Ebay and was pretty sure I was going to make some money on it. I could not sell that vase for the life of me. Started with an auction, opening bid of $99, nothing. Then BIN for $99... eventually BIN for $49 with best offer and no takers. Was probably on Ebay for a year. I finally donated it back to the GW. Hope that if yours is Tony Evans, that this style is one that is in particular demand. Maybe with the extreme look of the glaze will be a bonus. Hope you have better luck. :)[/QUOTE]
