§ Thomas 'Sam' Haile (British, 1909-1948), a rare slipware dish, the elongated formdecorated with a fish, impressed seal mark to underside 44½cm (17in), together with accompanying publication 'Sam Haile, Potter and Painter 1909-1948, edited by Barry Hepton Other Notes: Had Sam Haile lived, he would arguably have become one of the leading figures in 20th century ceramics. Born in 1909, he studied ceramics at the Royal College of Art under William Staite Murray, a hugely influential potter. Murray was known to be a casual - bordering on disinterested - teacher who often completely ignored his pupils. Haile, however, attracted his attention, and Murray would go so far as to silently point with his stick at those few pots he felt should be saved from the soak bin. Haile and Murray continued a sporadic correspondence throughout Haile's short life. Haile painted alongside his ceramics and was hugely influenced by the Surrealist movement. His pots were decorated with symbolic figures and dream characters more than a decade before Picasso began working with clay. In 1938, he married Marianne de Trey (see lot 63) and introduced her to pottery. She became a recognised and important potter in her own right; being awarded the CBE in 2006, and died at the age of 102 in 2016. As Sam was a pacifist, they moved to the United States at the outbreak of war, returning to England towards the end of the war where he joined the British Army as a non-combatant. He left an indelible impact on the American potters. After the war, he and Marianne moved to Suffolk and started work at the Bulmer Brickyard where he had a period of making slipware. Eventually, on the advice of Bernard Leach, they settled in Dartington, where tragically after only one year, Haile was killed in a road accident. The critic, A C Sewter, wrote of Haile: '….confronted by pottery such as Haile has been making during the last ten years, even a person not normally interested in the crafts is forced to realise that pottery is an art with a range and power of expression not less than that of painting. In his hands, in fact, pottery seems to become at once painting and sculpture…here is an artist whose hands speak eloquent and varied poetry'. The Victoria and Albert Museum, London holds an extensive collection of Haile's work.

Some examples had a brush at the end of the stick, but earlier examples did not. Display mounted, 16cm high (1)
