Day 46: Una Deerbon Vase

Day 46: Today's piece is by Melbourne based potter Una Deerbon. Born in Woollarah, NSW, she was a student of the Sydney Art school. She designed clothing for David Jones, produced series of humerous post cards and even opened her own design school. Teacher to her cousin John (Jack) Castle Harris, Eric Juckert and just generally annoyingly over talented. Circa mid 1930s this piece is interesting for Una as she was known for her colorful glazes. I think the monotone white looks much better but that might be a controversial to say out loud but hey you gotta live on the edge I suppose! #AustralianPottery #AustralianArtPottery #NSWPottery #Pottery #Ceramics #instapottery #AustralianDesign #MelbourneCeramics #MelbournePottery #australianceramics #Remued #UnaDeerbon #CastleHarris #EricJuckert #365DaysofAustralianPottery

Day 42: Premier Pottery Preston PPP Vase

Day 42: Today's piece is another piece by Premier Pottery Preston. This piece features a very trippy multicoloured glaze combination and a little pair of ears just to finish it off nicely. Unmarked but undoubtedly PPP, circa 1930. #AustralianPottery #AustralianArtPottery #Pottery #instapottery #Ceramics #AustralianDesign #australianceramics #PPP #PremierPottteryPreston #Remued #365DaysofAustralianPottery

Day 41: Premier Pottery Preston PPP Vase

Day 41: Today's piece is by Premier Pottery Preston or simply PPP. Starting production in 1930 the PPP line of wares is the predecessor to the Remued pottery line. Although both lines were produced by the same factory only 3 or 4 years apart they couldn't be more different! #AustralianPottery #AustralianArtPottery #PPP #PremierPottteryPreston #Remued #Pottery #Ceramics #instapottery #AustralianDesign #AustralianArt #australianceramics #MelbourneCeramics #VICPottery #ArtDeco

My Favourite Pieces #2 – Remued 173 Jug

One of the few old pieces of pottery I have purchased in my first year living in Tassie. This Pamela/Remued 173 jug with a strap handle is certainly a stunner and an easy inclusion in my list of favourite pieces in my collection.

Standing just 9cm high and measuring 16cm from spout to handle this jug has a substantial look and feel despite it’s proportions. Displaying early Pamela colouring and an unusual strap handle it certainly doesn’t go unnoticed on my packed sideboard.

This piece is unmarked and unnumbered, which is not unusual for early Remued. The absence of a shape number along with the distinctive colouring and less pronounced spout seem to point to a 1933/4 manufacture date. This variant with a flat strap handle is not recorded on www.remued.com but a quick e-mail to Peter Watson revealed this is not the first he has seen. In fact he had seen several all of which are unmarked and unnumbered which is why he is hesitant to make the call at this stage. For me, however, there is no doubt especially given that other shapes appear on the website in the exact same colour scheme (see bottom left image on unnumbered PPP shapes).
