This thoroughly revised third edition of Eric Yates-Owen and Robert Fournier's classic book on British studio potters' marks contains new and revised entries for many potters, with up-to-date information about the artists' styles, marks and addresses. Entries are arranged alphabetically. Each entry gives biographical data, information on the type of ceramics produced, the location of the pottery and dates indicating when marks have changed, along with images of the different marks used. Three useful indexes enable the reader to search by mark rather than maker, in various categories such as creatures, monograms and signs. Revised by passionate collector James Hazlewood, British Studio Potters' Marks, 3rd edition, is the essential text for collectors of British studio pottery.

Review:

British Studio Potters' Marks is not a book to leave on the shelf, however, and use only for reference. It is a pleasure to turn the pages and study the various marks . an excellent resource and for potters, a delightful read. I have spent many pleasant hours leafing through the pages. (Biblio Potter)

The third edition of this guide offers nearly five thousand marks or signatures of British ceramists and potters, making it a classic essential for collectors and students of ceramics in the United Kingdom. (Wladimir Vivas Infocer�mica (Bloomsbury Translation))
