Re: Teal Ceramic Goblet
This stamp, designed by Keith Sandford, indicates this is one of the earlier Teal pieces. Gail Lambert dates it as being between November 1979 and March 1981. Ken Doige redesigned the stamp because he thought this one looked like a "pregnant duck".
Keith and Ken were Teal's designers and mould makers. I'd hazard a guess this piece was one of Ken's designs. I have talked to Keith and seen his own collection and to my eye this one does not fit with his work. Just a guess though.

And check through the Teal gallery and other Teal topics.
I'll be visiting Keith's neighbour on Wednesday evening so I'll see if I can catch him and ask.
Thanks for the picture.

Re: Teal Ceramic Goblet
Thank you so much for that information Jeremy. I've been looking around this amazing site for some time and learnt SO much. Just a budding lover of kiwi pottery, but I'm sure the interest will grow into an obsession!
