We currently have two superb Original Oil Paintings by well known Cornish artist Gill Watkiss.
Gill Watkiss was born in 1938 and studied at the Walthamstow School of Art. She moved to West Cornwall with her late husband (painter and photographer) Reg Watkiss in the 1950’s. They lived in various locations including Zenna, St Just and Newlyn. Her work depicts the lives of ordinary people and their surroundings in Cornwall. She has developed a highly recognisable style with dramatic urban/rural landscapes/backgrounds and figures (many windblown) both happy and sad. She is undoubtedly one of the most influential figurative/landscape artists to work in Cornwall in the last fifty years.

The designs of Clarice Cliff offer a vast variety of patterns, shapes and often vibrant colours. They extend from the early 1920's Bizarre patterns, then in 1928 the highly successful Crocus colour range was introduced followed by Fantasque, Delecia, Applique, Gayday and many others. Further new shapes followed in the late 1920's and 1930's such as Conical, Bon Jour and Stamford. As tastes changed in the 1930's and modelled shapes became popular the My Garden range with small moulded flowers in bright colours sold well. In 1937 the Basketware pattern was introduced, Celtic Harvest was also popular. Just after the second world war the demand for less colourful, more conservative ornaments and tableware initially set the trend and the vibrant styles and patterns of the 1930's faded away. The colourful revival of other pottery in the 1960's possibly spurred a small revival of interest in the designs of Clarice Cliff and in the 1970's, 80's and 90's this exploded. This interest has remained steady ever since with huge numbers of collectors worldwide. Clarice Cliff was undoubtedly one of the foremost (possibly the most well known) British designer of the twentieth century. Her works and those of her paintresses now feature in the Victoria and Albert Museum. With such a huge and varied output to select from there is a style and colour to suit most buyers. At british ceramics and paintings we have now sold approximately 1000 pieces of Clarice Cliff pottery and we strive to offer affordable items ranging from cups and saucers, plates, tureens to vases and jugs.

Poole Pottery provides an opportunity to acquire an individual piece of British made pottery. The stylish wares originally made in Dorset represent the varied periods of twentieth century design. There are the colourful, intricate, sometimes jazzy Art Deco 1920's / 1930's styles of the Carter Stabler Adams period, the hand painted 1950's traditional floral designs contrast wonderfully with the clean cut simplified 1950's Scandinavian influenced Freeform wares. This was followed by the highly individual vibrant modern art 1960's Delphis pieces. The 1970's Aegean items then provide a further variation. Other designs include Studio and individual Commemorative pieces. There is also the highly influential Guy Sydenham Studio period with distinctive styles such as Atlantis. Virtually every piece of Poole Pottery is hand decorated and created individually by the potters and paintresses making most pieces unique. There is undoubtedly a piece to suit most tastes and homes and we always endeavour to have a wide selection available.
