A Brett Guthrie tenmoku glaze tea bowl, personal and pottery marks, height 8.2cmFrom the Bret Guthrie CollectionOriginally born in Barrow-in-Furness in 1916, to a Russian mother and English father, Bret Guthrie moved to Cornwall in 1926 when his father's work took the family to Falmouth, where he enjoyed his school years before the family moved again to East London. He later returned to Cornwall to await his army call-up for WWII. Whilst living in Nancledra, a cycling accident in St Ives threw him quite literally, at the feet of David Leach, son of the renowned potter. This led to a life-long friendship with both father and son, as well as a job dealing with the pottery's accounts. During his time at the Leach Pottery he also learnt about glazes, clay preparation and fired a few of his own pots. When the original kiln hearth, built by Tsurunosuke Matsubayashi in 1922 came to the end of its useful life, Guthrie and David Leach constricted a new one. At this time, Bernard Leach was away teaching at Dartington and as he and his son were so busy, Bret was tasked with experimenting with clay mixes and glazes and recording the results for the use of the pottery. Through Leach, Bret met and befriended many of the St Ives artists, Peter Lanyon, Naum Gabo, Adrian Stokes, Barbara Hepworth and Ben Nicholson etc. He married, and despite his role as a pilot in the RAF, he survived the war unscathed and took up teaching in 1946. Bret and Wendy became close friends with Francis Horne and her daughter Marjorie. It was Francis a local wealthy philanthropist who lived at Tremorna in Carbis Bay who offered Bernard Leach a capital loan of £2500 to set up his pottery with Hamada and also an assured income of £250 for 3 years and it was from Marjorie that Wendy inherited a cottage and collection of Leach pottery. It is a tantalising thought that some of the lots offered in this sale may have been personal gifts from Leach to his benefactor.Bret followed a productive and satisfying career, teaching in various Cornish schools and enjoying the exciting social life of post-war St Ives. He took an active interest in archaeology and joined many important digs and his work in Cornish pre-history led to his induction as a Bard in the Cornish Gorseth in 1959. In later life, he travelled extensively and involved himself in many local community projects including the creation of the Tate St Ives. It was here at the Tate in 2001, where Bret passed away whilst invigilating.
