| Q. just about prices of english ceramics going down a lot mainly because of the internet,for example i go to many live auctions in perth,they have trouble selling modern moorcroft for anything over 500 dollars,looked at same bits on ebay they sell between 2-300 dollars,that moorcroft at these auctions they want 900 bucks plus talking 30cm high,also royal doulton struggles to sell plates sell for 30 bucks each,last auction a clarice cliff secrets large bowl mint condition sold for 350 bucks feel sorry for people who bought moorcroft pieces at retail prices,cant get a third of what they paid for it,just saw on ebay a moorcroft limited edition of 150 pieces about 10 years old sold for 300 aussie dollars,any feedback on live auctions on east coast would be appreciated,apparently good ceramics gets better prices in sydney,etc same for sterling silver,here in perth there selling 100 year old hallmarked pieces for 20-50 bucks any feedback would be welcome |

| Q. I have a carlton ware cream jug passed down to me and i'm interested to know the value.
This jug is of hollyhocks pattern with a gold handle and trim around the top of the jug the pattern background is blue/green. The jug stands no more than 3inches and has what i would describe as a beehive shape, not straight up and down. the base of the jug has the carlton ware trade mark is made in England and has the numbers ./7472 3819painted on with what looks like the nuber 787 embosssed in the glase. It also has a gold w painted. Sorry no photo but the jug is in mint condition.

Thankyou for your help so far. The stamp has England underneath it, so I am assuming it is 1925-45 as you suggest. I have now uploaded photos into my collections so any more information you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again |

| Q. I am wantng to find any information about a Shelley trio set I have. It is black with a purple grape and white leaf design at the top of the cup and around plate edges. It also has some green and spots in a pattern on the very outer edges. I am currently missing a cup (I have two sets) and would be very interested in pruchasing a cup to complete the set. Plus any more or this design. I would dearly love to find out more information as I believe it is quite old and maybe rare. |
| [Donna Douglas 15/06/2010] |
| A. If the backstamp has "Shelley China" in a shield with "Made In" above the shield and "England" below that will be dated 1912-1925
If it has Shelley in the shield and "England" below it will be 1925-1945
If it has Shelley in the shield "Fine Bone China" above and "England" below it will be 1945-1965
I would need the cup shape and possibly a pattern number to give you more info. I photo would be great. |

They are both hand signed in gold on the bottom, one says "To 9 hand painted Irene Kalmar" the other says "To 9 Hand painted J Kalmar. Both have gold in the glazing one more extensive than the other. Can anyone help with supplying more info on them e.g. date and value etc? I know they are circa 1950's but not much else. Could these be early pieces made by the original principals? |

I worked at Pates Potteries at Belmore for about 12 months in 1954-55 if I saw a picture I might be able to tell you a bit about it but as to it's value I have no idea I might be able to tell you what the name of it was that's if it was made when I was there I was in the store room.

If not this week there will probably be something similiar next, I have seen just about every kind of pottery go through these 2 sites. Good Luck. |

| Q. I have just bought a teapot from an op shop that looks amazing, it's black with Chinese paper lanterns on it hanging from bamboo leaves, it's blue inside and has "Crown Ducal Ware England RdNo706201 and other little squiggles including 8 and what seems to be a signature. I really need someones help because i am new to collection. |
| [SillyTeapot 04/11/2009] |
| A. Crown Ducalware was made byA.G Richardson & Co Ltd, Gordon Pottery, Tunstall, England. If the mark on your teapot has a crown above it... that is 'Crown Ducal Ware England' with a crown above it would be dated c. 1925. Sounds like a lovely piece. I am not familiar with Crown Ducal prices but I would take a rough guess at $100 plus. Happy Collecting! |

My grandmother entrusted her collection of plates to me with a request to sell them to "someone who would appreciate them".

| Q. Hi there. I have inherited a large Beswick 1940s vase, but somebody has painted it with white house paint! Is there a safe way of removing the coat of paint and restoring the vase to its former glory without damaging the vase?? |
| [rosegarden56 03/05/2009] |
| A. Hi, whether your paint is oil or acrylic soaking in hot water will soften it and enable you to peel or rub it off. A little good quality dishwashing detergent in the water should help. After removing what you can this way stubborn paint - if acrylic - will respond to Methylated Spirits, and neat eucalyptus oil mixed with a little meths may aid removal of residual oil paint - depending on what vintage the oil paint is. Good luck from Cossii |
| [Cossii 08/09/2009] |
| A. Hi Cooka here, I have had a similar problem with a glazed vase and solved it by first soaking the vase overnight in water. I then gently rubbed the paint away with a MILD scourer dipped in soapy water to which I added a few drops of eucalyptus oil. It takes patience. The paint was acrylic based. If your vase has matt/pitted surface and/or the paint is oil based this method may not work. Good luck. |

| Q. Hi, I was given two plates, 1 has Jule after 1968 written on the front and a church at christmas scene predominantly blue with white on it. On the back it has 'B&G Kjobenhavin, Denmark, K kirke juleaften Christmas in church', written on the back. The other one says 'Jule after 1969' on the front with a snow sled pulling up to a house by a horse. It's obviously Christmas time. On the back it says 'B&D Kyobenhavin, Denmark, 000/9069, Tit Jul i Prastegdrden, Arrival of Christmas Guests' I think. Odd letter hard to decipher. Can anyone help me? Would be greatly appreciated.

| Q. Can anyone tell me the origin of DOMAY ceramics? |
| [trevordog94 24/04/2009] |
| A. Domay was the name given to a line of slipcast ware designed by Dorothy Hope in the 1950s and mainly sold through David Jones. She employed a small staff to do the casting and fettling but found the administration dull work, so she wrapped up the business in 1962 and left Sydney to set up her Thrumster Village Pottery near Port Macquarie. This is from her biography, Impressions in Clay, published in 1990. |

Depending on size and candition they seem to range from aroung $20 for a pin dish with a very simple design such as tea tree, up to over $100 for larger plates of for bunches of mixed flowers. Nice item to own |

| A. I've been collecting McHugh pottery for about 3 years now and have seen pieces numbered up to 67, of those i'd have examples of 57 of them. I also have pieces that don't carry a number. Number 34 is as far as i know a sugar bowl, about 8.5 cm tall, straight sided tapering at top and slightly rounded at base. 7cm dia at top,about 9cm at base, it should have a lid with a small rounded ball shaped handle on top about 15mm diameter, hope this helps |

| Q. The difference between hollyhock and foxglove green pottery |
| [ware 16/03/2009] |
| A. all that i know is the foxglove carlton ware pottery design as i have one yellow jug for sale on ebay at the moment |
| [cactusmike 15/10/2009] |
| A. With regard to the embossed wares - there is no difference between 'hollyhock' or 'foxglove' except the name. The factory referred to this pattern as Foxglove in their original records, but it has been called a few thing by collectors / sellers over the time.
There are also other patterns which feature foxglove flowers. These aren't part of the embossed ranges, and were produced earlier than these. |

| Q. where does Winton come from? |
| [Robert 11/09/2008] |
| A. Royal Winton was made in England and I believe they are now making some new chintz pieces in the old patterns. The "Red Roof" pattern I collect is no longer made - I believe production ceased in the early 1950's. |

| Q. Is Martyn Boyd and Guy Boyd the same person? |
| [geoffisaac30 07/02/2008] |
| A. Martin was Guy's uncle, not his brother. |
| [cerambler 09/09/2008] |
| A. Martin was a writer not a potter. Guy set up the Martin Boyd Pottery in Sydney with partners Norma and Leonard Flegg in 1946. He transferred his interest in the pottery to Leonard’s brother Ronald in 1951 and went back to Melbourne where he ran a new pottery, the Guy Boyd Pottery, from 1952-1964. Meanwhile the Fleggs continued to operate the Martin Boyd Pottery in Sydney until 1963. |
| [cerambler 13/07/2008] |
| A. No They are different people. (brothers) |
