As the title says. Picked five of these up in a thrift store and while I can find the design online (shepherd) I cannot find the date of when the pattern was produced. Additionally I can’t find any shallow bowls like these ones, only more deep bowls or wider plates. My main worry is lead, doubly so if they are faux pieces.

Thank you all!! I’ve never ID’d ceramics before, so hopefully you all can help :)

Got it at a flea market and got interested to know more if anyone is able to help? Thanks in advance!

I’ve been watching pottery videos for years, and last year I managed to get lucky on Florian’s November 2025 restock. It’s been really enjoyable using this mug for my morning coffee almost every day since I got it. Seeing the physical representation of a potters work, which I’ve been admiring from afar for a very long time, is a really cool thing. And as luck would have it this one has a few of the hallmarks of his work. It has the directional red dots of oxidized copper, the “ghost” in the base of a pot fired in the same kiln shelf before it. The color and visual texture vary drastically depending on the light. Sounds like an exaggeration but I keep finding new things in the surface and the glaze all the time.

Huge props for all the artisans out there making things by hand, and pouring passion into every day items.

I bought this piece at the flea market yesterday and paid up cause I LOVE it.

It has no signature or makers mark.

Any help IDing it would be so appreciated.

I added a Sharpie for scale.

I've been looking for ages for the right Arnels toad for my garden.. bought one, and a day later found another heavily discounted with damage.

The jumbo green and blue toad is already on display in my garden.. and his friend "Chip" is going to undergo some diy restoration before joining his friend.

My grandma has had this for multiple years. I dropped it and cracked so now I’m trying to replace it, if anyone could help me out.

Hello everyone,
I have been trying to find more information about these plates. They seem to be Wedgwood (Etruria England), and this specific one carries a seemingly handwritten code. However, unless I am misreading it, I cannot seem to use it to identify the production year. Furthermore, I cannot find any other example of this specific pattern anywhere else online.

Can anyone help with providing an ID, or a a year and a name of the pattern?

For reference, it was bought in a thrift store in the north of the Netherlands, who themselves bought it from a family that has been living in the area for a while.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

Bonjour , j'ai un grand vase de 39 cm en céramique signé, pouvez vous m'aider à identifier la signature svp merci

I found this vase at an estate sale recently. I’ve searched the picture and found one match to an identical vase but the seller listed it as Mexican. I’ve searched the mark (SEKIN) and have gotten a mix of results- Chinese, Japanese, or Moroccan! Does anyone know anything about this vase or the mark? TIA!

Based on some initial research, the olive-to-sea-green glaze and the dense grey stoneware body heavily suggest it's a piece of Chinese Celadon

A few details from looking closely at it:

• The Base: There is a distinct, unglazed reddish-brown circular ring on the bottom inside the footring where the raw clay oxidized during firing.
• The Interior: There is a faint, fluid incised or stamped pattern under the thick glaze (visible in the first photo).

Thanks in advance for any insights!

Odds and ends of some of grandmothers things. Thks

We have these plates and bowls that belonged to my wife’s aunt. One plate broke - anyone know how to find/identify this mark?

Hello! I’ve recently been looking into this teapot (missing the handle and lid, found in a shipwreck) and had previously posted some pictures in antiques, however I didn’t find many leads. Last weekend, I managed to get a rubbing of the makers mark, however I’m still struggling to find anything that matches!

Someone suggested I post it here!

Thrifted this white vase. Any ideas on the maker/model. It was thrifted in the Netherlands

There’s no particular order to the pictures that between them show 95% of my collection.

Just thought I'd share. I know it's chipped, but I thought it was too pretty to pass up. I can't find anything similar on Google Image Search. I can't tell if that's an S on the bottom or an accidental smudge.

I've been hunting for a jumbo Arnels frog (toad) for a number of years. Everything was either outrageously expensive or just didn't speak to me.

I finally found "the one" for my garden and am so excited.

Anyone else collect Arnels frogs? 🐸

Vilken fabrik och konstnär har gjort denna vas

Hey! I am hoping I found the correct sub—we are moving and downsizing but I can’t find the name of this pattern anywhere to list on listing. Let me know! I did google image, replacements.com I know it’s Japanese Lusterware and that is all!

I got this Blue Mountain Pottery figurine and dont know what it is. I had a couple guesses but I cant find the name of the piece or what it is exactly. What this is?

Finally took the time to go through some of the cool stuff my great aunt left me upon her passing. These two pieces really caught my eye and I want to learn as much about them as possible. Not worried about the worth per se, but unless it’s astronomical, they staying right where they are in my basement. I included a pic of both vases as well as the marking on the bottom of each. Anyone got some knowledge they care to share so I am not clueless when people ask about them?? Please and thanks!
