This piece is only about 48mm high but has a wealth of variation in it.

I think this piece came from the same firing - wrapped in straw and pit fired. It's abpout 35cm in diameter.

Col's mark often gets confused with Len Castle's mark.
Many thanks to Jimbo for sorting this mark out.

Some info about him from the Australian Marks site:

The little beaker doesn't have a mark and I'll ask about the larger dish next time I see its custodian.
