Thank you, I think I’ve tried every reference I can on the internet but I can’t find it.
Also this house is full of antiques next to stuff from the high street so I’ve no idea where to start. I appreciate you responding

Is there a pattern or design on the vase? That might be easier to work out

What does it look like? Is it a vase?

Try Google reverse image

Just seen it's a vase - colours?

People will be able to help more if you post a full picture of the vase.

I've done a Google lens search but it hasn't returned anything even vaguely similar. It's probably just an individual potter maker's mark. Think you'll just have to 'fess up.

Possibly Cornish Stoneware?

It may well be a studio pottery mark and if so, the chances of getting an exact replacement are slim, even if only a few years old. Might be worth a scan of Ebay/Etsy to see if there's anything similar and if you can work the maker out, refine the search.

And yes please to a photo of the vase, even broken!

Sorry I’m an idiot- there are a few bits of this stuff it’s brown with a powdery feel turquoise over it (not an expert) here is one I haven’t smashed

If it's easy to find then replace it. It sounds as if it's a one off though. Anyway it's awful when this happens, happened to me!

I genuinely was mortified, but phoned my friend whose house we were using explaining the problem, and offered to replace it or get something similar. She wouldn't hear of it, so I got her some flowers instead.

I suppose if it's a commissioned piece and very valuable, then it's a different story, but how do you know if that's true. If it is, then the insurance may cover it, and you pay the excess + a small gift. Accidents happen and I wouldn't stress too much about it or spend hours or days trying to source it either. Good luck anyway however it works out for you!

Might not be a UK potters mark. On the whole they tend to be very clear.
Be honest with them. It might be a mass produced mimic they liked the look of OR it could be a collectors item in which case it could cost many hundreds of pounds to replace IF a similar item ever enters the market.

A sane collector should have individual art items that are worth real money listed in their home insurance so you could offer to cover the excess.

@couiza Thank you, if it was anyone else but this person I would feel a lot better about it!
Typical of me…

Reverse Google that bowl/plate ... it's lovely!

I’ve been reversing images and marks for days - but I’m very thankful for the ideas and help from everyone on this thread!

Please could we have a pic of some of the other stuff, especially the vase? They are often a unique shape to the potter, if that makes sense? Thanks

It looks like a Blue Rutile finish? If that's any help 😀

This?

Just own up to it, sincerely promise to replace it, and you never know, it may not be a favourite of theirs, it could be a vase they have never loved and they can now ask you to buy something new to replace it. I have lots of ceramics and my brother has given me some over the years which are not exactly my taste so I would be quite happy if it got smashed.

Just remember OP that it was an accident and this was A Thing, it is not the end of the world. Own up, offer to replace, all you can do really

@FloofCloud afraid not, it’s a matte powdery finish not glass at all but appreciate your help

Is it Leonard Edgar for Ewenny pottery?

I will of course own up, I just hoped I could have a replacement ready to soften the blow.
Hopefully it’s not going to be a sentimental or terribly expensive piece. My own clumsy fault.
