      It is beautiful, and obviously done by a talented potter. Can you read any of the letters? Does it begin with a ā€œCā€ ?
    2. maryh1956 maryh1956, 11 years ago
      Can you take a photo showing the whole base, so the signature is not quite so magnified.

      i think, although i'm not sure, that it says 'sean' above and then those two symbols or whatever... i'm really bad at reading other people's writing - just as everyone else is really bad at reading my own. i can't even read my own writing!
    4. ho2cultcha ho2cultcha, 11 years ago
      yes maryh1956, i'll take some more pics in a little while and post them. thank you!

      It's by Lynn Bowers, your photo of the mark is upside down, reads "L Bowers".
      Very notable potter.

      Here's how the signature should look
