Yes Jonathon Gribble sold out of Trafalgar Sq. Wanganui and lived in the Quaker Settlement in Wanganui. His ELBIRG mark is his surname backwards but with only one b. I remember hand thrown work and then he moved into brightly coloured ceramics. Don't know if he is still working or not. A painter I know shared a studio with him for a while and gave me a few details.
Some work of his work I have and his other mark.
