Hi. This is my first post on this board so I hope I've get it right. Any advice about changes please let me know.
I found this piece of studio pottery in Huddersfield (West Yorkshire, UK) in a charity shop and hope that someone may be abler to identify date & maker.
There is an impressed mark on the base (see attached images).
It measures 16 cms tall x 18 cms wide x 5 cms deep and weighs 900 gms.
I've attached 3 images to this post (front, back and mark) and also 3 images on a reply (as suggested - both side views and the top view).
As said any help would be much appreciated.

Hello and welcome, been a bit quiet here recently can't help myself but others might be able to, I'll check my books but they are a bit old and this looks quite 'new'

Hi All. Not sure if this helps, but looking more closely at the impressed mark I'm almost certain that it's 2 letters inter-twinned - looking one way it could either be CP or GP, turning the vase over it could be either DG or DQ. Does that help anyone?

Did have a look, no luck but I hadn't considered it might be a Q, back to the books... :thd: ;D ;D

Hi. Think I've found the mark - Cooper Pottery - 1960's / 1970's. However I cannot find out any info (i.e. potters). Do you have any information? Thanks

Click on the link, it's all I can find, ;D ;D

Hi and welcome to the board! I'm not 100% convinced this is Cooper Pottery - the mark is slightly different - sufficiently so for me to be doubtful... I'll have a mooch through my ref stuff and see what I can find too.
