I was confused because although it shares the colouring of Delphis the lines were too sharp and pattern more controlled. I'm going to see if the library will throw up more info on Dorset range.

I think his early work turning the bases of the thrown pots would not have been signed - just as the throwers also didn't mark their work. I dont know if he signed any of the later turned pieces that he produced in the late 1930's, but there is no mark attributed to him in the Hayward and Atterbury book.
