Selected works from
the Collection of the Late
Dr George and Mrs Ann Geroe
Ann Geroe (1934-2015) was born in Wales and migrated to
Melbourne with her mother after World War II. In the early 1970s,
while doing a double major in philosophy at Melbourne University
as a mature age student, she attended pottery classes run
by Barry Singleton. Already interested in Chinese ceramics,
particularly the pots of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Kang
Hsi reign of the Ching Dynasty and the Ching monochrome
reproductions of the 19th century, she set out to recreate
their celadon, copper red and imperial yellow glazes on simple
monochrome forms. She started practicing professionally as a
potter in 1979, working from a home studio in Castlemaine. Some
of her work is carved or pierced and she also made stoneware
tableware for a time. In 1987, she travelled overseas, holding
a one-person show at the Matsuzakaya Department Store,
Yokohama, and going on to visit ceramic collections in Beijing,
Taipei, Shanghai, London and Oxford. She continued to work into
the 2000s but gave up potting in around 2004 after a fall in her
studio. In 2014, a survey exhibition of her work was held at the
Castlemaine Art Gallery to coincide with her 80th birthday. Her
work is held in the collection of the National Gallery of Victoria.

A sterling silver 'Duty Dodger'
octagonal bullet teapot by Thomas
Farren, London, 1728
13cm high,
total weight of silver 515gms
NOTE
the term 'Duty Dodger' refers to a silver
item with transposed silver marks. The
marks are soldered on from a smaller
taxed object so that the silversmith
could avoid paying the full amount
of tax to the Hall. This is indicated
by the lack of a makers mark to the
base of the teapot, and a set of marks
punched too close to the hinge of the
lid, suggesting they were punched
before the hinge was attached,
rather than after by the assay office.
Duty dodgers are in violation of the
Hallmarking Act of 1973, and therefore
cannot be sold in the UK without the
marks being crossed out.
