Day 66: Premier Pottery Preston Remued Chamber Stick

Photo Caption: Day 66: Today’s piece is by Premier Pottery Preston. This chamber stick is unmarked but carries all the hallmarks of early Pamela/Remued of the early 1930s. I acquired this piece by happy accident and love it even more so because of it. Sometimes the story of how you got something is worth just as much or more than the piece it’s self.

Day 65: Newtone Art Ware Basket Vase

Photo Caption: Day 65: Today’s piece is by Bakewell Bros from their Newtone Art Ware line circa 1930s. This piece is a rare Newtone shape and is in fact the only one I’ve seen before. The thin basket handle almost looks like it would break if you look at it too harshly which is possibly one of the reasons you don’t see this shape about. If any collectors out there have one I’d love to see it.

Day 64: Trent Art Ware Basket Vase

Photo Caption: Day 64: Today’s piece is by Bakewell Bros from their Trent Art Ware line. Not a shape you see often but as is often the case, if you see one you probably see another 2 or 3 in quick succession. Like some of Bakewells other shapes this one is probably a copy of an English made piece. Bakewells sold some of their moulds off in the early 1950s and this shape is one they sold to Diana so you will more commonly see their version of this vase around the shops.

Day 63: Newtone Art Ware Vase

Photo Caption: Day 64: Today’s piece is by Bakewell Bros from their Newtone Art Ware line circa 1930s. Quite an odd decoration but one that pops up from time to time on a number of different shapes. I don’t know if it’s the most distinguished Newtone design but it’s certainly a bit of fun.

Day 62: Mystery Tasmanian Vase

Photo Caption: Day 62: Today’s piece is another mystery Tasmanian piece. Unmarked but possibly by Van Diemen pottery circa late 1940s. The body is covered in an amazing red and yellow drip glaze with purple covering the base. It stands about 20cm high so not a small piece.

Day 61: Koala Pottery Miniature Jug

Photo Caption: Day 61: Today’s piece is a miniature jug made by NSW based pottery Koala. There are 2 Koala potteries listed in Geoff Fords pottery marks book. This is from the later post war pottery. This jug is a 1950s copy of an earlier jug probably made by the Fowler pottery although the Fowler jug might have been a copy of an English jug around the early 30s. Koala always surprises me. They were only a small pottery in Oyster Bay but they seemed to have produced an interesting array of items and some absolute stand out pieces that would rival any of the best post war potteries.

Day 60: Cynthia Mitchell Owl Whistle

Photo Caption: Day 60: Today’s piece is another Owl. This time by my fav Tasmanian potter Cynthia Mitchell. This Owl hides a little secret which you only really notice when you turn him round. He is a whistle (or ocarina). One of 10 different whistles I have by Cynthia. I’m guessing there has to be at least one more as I don’t have a Tassie Devil which she would have had to have made!
