Lot 451: A Collection of Poole Pottery Dolphin and Aquatic Ceramics

A collection of five glazed ceramic items by Poole Pottery, featuring an aquatic theme. The group comprises a large oval bowl in a lighter blue glaze, a rectangular dish with a relief dolphin motif in teal, a substantial sculpture depicting a black dolphin cresting a teal wave, and two smaller seal figurines in blue-grey and teal glazes. The style is consistent with mid-to-late 20th-century decorative ceramics. Each piece bears impressed or stamped markings on its base, universally reading “POOLE ENGLAND” alongside a stylized dolphin logo. The large oval bowl’s mark further includes “EST. 1973.” The items exhibit variations of the distinctive ‘Blue Dolphin Glaze’ on several pieces.
