🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Sail Mark On Pottery Bottom For ID

Cariboo5 · Oct 23, 2023

Just nothing in my re-search as to whom and possibly when these were made was able to be found. Look like sail boats on bottom of both.
Any & all thoughts, suggestions & opinions. All welcome ..... Thanks to all...

I suspect these were made by an potter in a small shop who has the sailboat as his/her trademark.

From the lack of wear on the bottoms I think these are from the last half of the twentieth century. In what part of the world did you find them?

Helpful to know area. We have had lots of small pottery shops in New Brunswick, usually with a single potter working in a small building near their home. Maybe was similar in Nova Scotia and one of them is the source of the pottery. There may be an association of potters with their trademarks registered that could give you the source of your items.

You could just go to your local thrift stores and look for other works with the same bottom mark, if you find one ask if the store clerks know anything about the maker?
