Post  Valerio Sat 18 Feb - 15:39

Hello I was wondering if anyone knows very much about Dorothy Ewart? I have been meaning to follow up on her for ages. Any ideas on where to start? I haven't had a great deal of success so far. Thanks in advance for any tips. Is she still going?

Thanks in advance if you can help me with any ideas or information.

Hi Valerio Smile
We don't even have any of Dorothy's work or her mark on the site yet !
Can you help?
It says in the Marks of New Zealand's Potters book that she was potting Wellington.
Perhaps the Wellington Potter's could help with info ....

I really like the work I have seen of hers, and have a much loved piece which I am hoping to add too so I can have a little collection.


I have found she is now in her nineties and no longer potting. Hopefully I will be able to arrange to speak to her soon. Thanks for your help!

Dorothy Ewart - Upper Hutt? Dsc09410

Thought I would post this here before it is listed, so you can see it, and the mark. The pattern looks to me like a fern (not the ponga, another I see inthe garden centres).

Here is the mark also, for the gallery.
