I am hoping someone recognises either the style, or the pottery on this vase, I picked it up on a whim because it is a striking piece and it does look like Oz Pottery, but I do not know for sure. It is huge - 45 cms tall, 19 cms diameter, the all over pattern is sharply incised, which is unusual, and the signature is incised as well - "Kirry Art Pottery" and "TB"
I will post another couple of pics in the next post as well.
Many thanks in advance
cheers

Doh! I meant wheel thrown

wheel thrown I think Sharon, it is quite heavy, and the design is all hand incised. I am not sure who or what the TB on it is, the Kitty signature is the same as on other pieces I have googled. Maybe it is the inciser?

Not sure yet, but " I think " the T.B. could be Tolmino Bellini or was it Tolmino Belucci ????? Kitty did work / study with him in Monte Lupo c.1958 I believe.

I am wondering where the info on Kitty Breeden is from? I can't find much online

๐ According to Kitty's daughter-in-law..... Kitty said the TB initials are Theo Beulakker ~~ "he was a Dutch artist who visited and decorated some pottery. "
She was unsure of the exact date though - ?:| could have been around 1954 or 1958.
