    I found this sweet duck in an op shop (thrift) in shop in Brisbane, Australia about 12 months ago. I adore it!! I am curious as to any info on the potter/maker and where it is from?
    Thank you!

      Looking at upside down signatures is one of my least favourite things. That being said, could you please 'fix' your photographs - please!

      Thank you very much for doing that. I've looked at 4 different pottery makers all with the last name Swift. Unfortunately, their styles just don't match with your duck.

      I really like the glaze. However, the eyes just aren't 'right'. This could have been made by a hobbyist - but great glaze!
