Re: Is this Ambrico/Crown Lynn?
Hi there, no this wasn't made by Ambrico as they used a straw coloured clay and this was made with white clay.

Re: Is this Ambrico/Crown Lynn?
I’ve just read the topic https://www.newzealandpottery.net/t6608-ambrico-ruskin-experimental-or-hobby-ceramic , which I should have read before posting - no doubt mine is one of those.
I do love a good mystery…….

Re: Is this Ambrico/Crown Lynn?
There is also a possibility that this stuff pre-dated Ambrico by a decade and a half.
One piece on trademe a fair few years ago now had a hallmarked silver top on it that dated, best I can remember, as 1921.
Whatever it is, whether NZ, Australian, British, or other, it is pretty engaging pottery. When people are asking hundreds of dollars on trademe for them I was fortunate to buy one from one of the other sellers at a CL market for just $25, and think it was $25 well spent. Sometimes I like to be part of the narrative.
If you like it buy it, if you don’t then maybe not.
