I bought this bowl from Arthurs, an antique store in Oamaru...they bought it from Evan Blair who had an antique store for over 50 years in Oamaru since the mid 60's. He bought 6 bowls from a lady who worked at McSkimmings, and 5 were marked and this one was not, he kept it for his own use.
On pg 48 in the NZ Pottery book by Gail Henry is a photo of McSkimming Pottery & Sons exhibition in Dunedin, 1925. On the top left row you can see examples of pouring bowls next to the patterned bowls.
