Poolesinki

Or Poolehagen maybe.  This 5 inch pin dish, decorated using a wax resist technique, certainly has a very Scandinavian look.  Robert Jefferson had spent time in Scandinavia before his appointment as head of design at Poole, and his experiences there are thought to have influenced his later designs and the development of the Poole Studio wares.   It has no artist mark but bares the Poole Studio mark for 1962-64.

  1. Ooh, that's pretty. Quite unPoole-like actually. Which sounds like I don't like more typical Poole, though I really do! Hope you're Ok, Rob! xxx

    1. Hi Curtise, I was just reading your latest post, what are we both doing home on a Saturday night. Anyway, I can't believe you've been a mum for 10 years now. Lovely photos. xxx
