LC mark help please
ginger Fri Jun 06, 2008 10:14 pm
Have a pottery decanter with goblets impressed with an L sitting to the left of and intersecting the middle of a slightly lower C. These are within a tear drop. It could also be an L with an E. Any ideas? Not in my Coates book and prob not Len's work. Has anyone got the new NZ marks book yet? I bought one off TM today and am too impatient to wait!!!

Hi Ginger 
Well done with getting the photos sorted...
The mark you describe sounds exactly like Bruce Lissant-Clayton...an excellent potter.
I think there is a photo of his mark already on the site - but I can't find it.
Jo might know where it is - as she was the one that asked who the mark belonged to ....

My book has arrived and the mark is Lissant-Clayton of Nelson. Can highly recommend this book as a handy ref tool.
