Hi all,

Here is an email regarding a mystery pot. It is very lovely and not small at around 45cm. Anyone recognise the pot or potter. It is being donated to the NBPCA

(Hi Grant,

Here are the photos of the mystery pot. The logo has a bonsai sketch inside the map of Australia. I asked the donor if she knew the origin and she does not. She thought it might have been Bruce Finley (although she did not remember his name, she referred to him as someone who used to sell pots at our shows, which Bruce did). She does not think the SJW is Shirley White as she did not recall buying any pots from Shirley. One pot has B34 SJW on it.

I hope Lindsay can shed some light.

XXXXX)

Hi Grant,
I'm sorry I can't offer any assistance on identifying it, but it certainly is very nice

Does Clay Express ring a bell with anyone?

hi grant

are you sure it is SJW? could it be SJU? or even DJU? it is a little hard to tell but just throwing ideas out there as it might help?

Hi grant, I got a broken one that i glued together . I cant remember who, but i think they called it a mackay pot or a mckay pot. Well I know it wasnt much help, and i hope Im not giving false leads.Maybe someone else remembers.

thats an awesome pot Ed love the glaze, is it just the light or has that got a gold glaze? the shaping of the pot is sensational too!

Jamie, Thanx but I think its just the light. The shape is nice, Im still wondering who gave me the name "Mckay pot".

Hi,

That looks similar to the one we now have.

I hope someone knows for sure.
