Large slipware charger

The slipware text says Mortem 1984. A school where Ian was teaching pottery at that time.


assorted pottery



Glaze tests

These were used by Ian to mark certain plants within the garden

Large decorate bowl

One of my favourite pieces. Pride of place within my home.


1 slipware and 1 decorated charger

The decorated plate matches a pot seen elsewhere in my collection


Assorted vessels

I believe the outer 2 of these pots are by Ian Godfrey and the inner 2 to be from his personal collection.


Assortment of small bowls








3 bowls

These bowls were wrapped up in storage with Ian's other work. The styles are different but I believe that they are his work. 1 has significant damage.


3 early glazed vessels


Set of Slipware jugs and cups

2 lidded pots

When I opened these for the first time I found a small collection of Ian's treasures: small stones, fossils and other archeological bric a brac. I have kept them inside as I found them.

Antelope Cornucopia

A cornucopia is defined as a 'symbol of plenty'.

I have seen variations of these cornucopias that have feet so they stand up but the overall forms look much less slender.

Village in a shallow bowl




Set of Antelope Bowls



Pilgrim Pots


Pilgrim Pots. The smaller pot is flawed and broken which for me lends to the feeling of this being something I have just dug up from a forgotten time. I keep both together on display.
