Title: Sunday's Bootie Buys
Post by: terrapotter on June 27, 2011, 07:48:40 PM

I went out to the local big bootsale to look for stock for my business, but as usual I ended up with more pottery pieces  :good:
I did have one good find a piece of Ray Finch! the mark is not all there but I am sure it is right. The only query I have is the impressed letter in the base? In this case a capital T any ideas

Hi there, and Welcome to the Board.  :gcheer: :gcheer: :gcheer:

On the last pic you posted here with the T on the bottom --- what is that mark on the Right Hand side (the outside) that a person can see in the pic?

Is that a design?  :huh:  As i do not see more of that design there IF it is ??  Always good to post one item per topic (post)

Again Welcome.  ;D

Hi thank you for the welcome the mark you see on the right of the last image is that of Ray Finch, Winchcombe  (I believe!) Here is a close up of that image.
I am curious about the letter T if anyone can throw any information on it?

Ray Finch storage jar (mark)

We think the 'B' is so that it could be matched with the lid (which also has an incesed 'B') after the firing.
