Silva Shape 38 in the Flambeau style
Many thanks to David Salisbury for letting us use his photosI believe that the Flambeau "poured paint" ware was decorated by Partridge Potteries in the 1940's, with the blanks sourced from the Rancich/Silva pottery.
The Auckland Museum have credited Partridge for this ware and I concur.

Wally Silva vase with a Flambeau Pottery sticker! Decorated by Partridge
The first, Nr 84, the base doesn't match the red bases but the paintwork could be Flambeau.Nr 9 is already in the gallery.

Wally Silva vase with a Flambeau Pottery sticker! Decorated by Partridge
A while ago the dealer in Dannevirke allowed me to photograph his collection of Flambeau pottery. It came in a box of stuff he found high on a shelf in some old offices he was clearing out. I have no idea who these pots are. My uneducated instinct says they're not hand potted, but I would like other opinions on that. (EDIT further information convinces me they are hand potted). From from memory these vases range from about 12 to 24 cm tall. The Auckland Museum has one Flambeau pot - he is not sure who it is either; I wrote down some notes which I can't find at present.. will add to this post later. They are painted not glazed, the style is very different from Salisbury. I wondered if they were Australian but that seems unlikely given the Wally Silva connection which Ev has noted. The base of these pots are flat, painted, with odd numbers impressed. And lots of pencil marks which are probably prices etc. Hmmmmmm!EDITS September 2015. It appears likely that these vases were hand thrown by Wally Silva.

Wally Silva vase with a Flambeau Pottery sticker! Decorated by Partridge
This vase looks like different coloured 'paint' has been poured around it. It looks very effective, although some parts are cracking now. The intriguing part is the sticker! Who were Flambeau Pottery?- on Thu 11 Aug - 15:19
