Langley Pottery

Post by Pip on Mon Feb 11, 2008 6:02 pm

I'm a big fan of the Langley Pottery items that Glyn Colledge designed after the take over by Denby in the late 1950's. These three vases are all GC designs for Langley and date from the 1960s.

Variation on a theme by Glyn Colledge; also love the contrasting dark grey interior.

I met a lady yesterday who's mother was a friend of Glyn Colledge,she told me that the signed pieces ensure that Glyn had some part in the decorating of that piece,also that he was left handed and would hold the pottery up at head height when painting on the glazes,this may explain his rather erratic signature?

That's interesting - cheers for sharing that. I'm left-handed too.
