Ev,
1157 hasn't found its way to the gallery yet.
Or is this 11-6-7

Correct Jeremy and it was you who alerted me that it looked just like the 1167.
I've only had the descriptions from the Museum for around 15 months, so I couldn't check prior to that.

I have seen 1143s in three different glazes today.
On all of them the number is a mirror image.
None (of the three in different glazes) have other raised (or impressed) marks.

What really has caught my attention is the glaze on this pair.

These colours are an accurate reproduction. Photos taken outside in daylight.

I mentioned this glaze yesterday in reference to Ev's unnumbered ramekin at https://www.newzealandpottery.net/t2913-another-ramekin#8943

The 1143 is identified in notes as being made at Titian, but like so many other ribbed shapes it looks to me like Luke Adams. The way the orange glaze breaks to darkest black at its thickest is a similar effect to the Adams glazes Basalt (124) and Lucow (147).

I'm wondering if this might be the, as yet unidentified, Luke Adams glaze
Homestead (Deco No - 123).

23/4/15 1143 in Basalt glaze.


This 1143 is glazed in Basalt. The base mark is pretty unreadable in the photo as in life but it is exactly the same mark as all others so far.

As I now know that Titian also used a Basalt glaze I can no longer be 100% that it is Luke Adams, however as the Titian Basalt glaze has only been seen on vitrified items in the Chateau Range so far I am pretty sure.

One of the 1143s of the three mentioned earlier is in a chocolatey colourglaze brown similar to the brown in Basalt glaze.
