A substantial glazed stoneware vessel by British studio potter William Marshall (1923–2007). The piece features a cylindrical, shouldered form with an oatmeal-glazed base, blue applied sprigs, and expressive iron brushwork. Impressed potter’s seal to the body.
Marshall was the first apprentice at the Leach Pottery in St Ives and worked closely alongside Bernard Leach, contributing to many of his key pieces. Over time, he developed a distinct voice rooted in Japanese ceramic aesthetics. In 1977, he established his own studio in Lelant, Cornwall, where he continued to refine his individual practice.
