The pot is part of the collection of David Coachworth and Peter Myers who purchased it from an exhibition of Emmanuel Cooper pots, held at the British Craft Centre, London, in October/November 1972.
The exhibition price list has survived in Emmanuel’s archive - the pot, described as a ‘Lidded Jar’ is 'No 15: White glaze’ and cost £5.00!
The exhibition coincided with the publication of Emmanuel's History of Pottery, the book which established his name as a writer on ceramics and through five editions remained in print for over forty years.
