FYI….. I came across a website titled Australian decorative pottery of the 1930’s promoting Australian pottery. As quoted by the website – “This is a collection of commercial handmade lead-glazed decorative pottery made in Australia between the world wars. The items in this collection were discovered between 1992 and the present in shops and auctions in Victoria and Tasmania”. Enter their website here to to view a gallery of images. From the gallery, you can view close-ups of the pottery and read a brief history of that manufacturer if you wish.
