How to best approach figuring out ID's of pottery and glass ?

I am wondering, after hours of googling and searching Koval's, is there an easier way to figure out who the artists are on pottery and on glassware ? Some have no ID marks on them. So a little history to help why I am so overwhelmed. I have inherited all these items and need to identify them to know if I should hang onto them or just send them off to auction. I have a smaller home than where they came from.

Names I have found are Reitz, Skyeramics, Janet Leach, David Leach, Coby. and so many that I can't find. Once I find them, it's hard to determine a value. Are there any basic guidelines that anyone can advise on ?

Then there are a some that are just symbols... I will attach those pics.

I was excited to find Peter Pots on FB

I appreciate your patience with all my questions. Thank you

 

Here is another one I missed in the above post. I searched for letters PT, PI, and reversed.

 

Far more glass is unmarked than is marked. Without some guidance you will wear out google. Try posting some photos of a few pieces most of us like to look at it and enjoy helping.

 

Yes, post photos here and maybe someone can help. Make sure to put Glass or Pottery in your title so the right folks look at your items.
Here is a Studio Pottery ID group on Facebook that have helped me in the past

It ain't easy. I've spent almost 50 years studying glass, I figure I've got maybe 15% figured out. There is no easy way.

 

Hi Cherryhill,
Ain't it the truth.

There are several good glass pages on Facebook

 

Hi Dolphins! When loading your images, the very top one says "ALL IMAGES - FULL SIZE"......click THAT one, once they're loaded small, and then they will all appear LARGE!!! Thanks!!! MUCH EASIER on older eyes!!! Images should be NO LARGER than 1 MB.....480 x 640 is a good general size.

Just in case you don't know, viewers like to see tops, bottoms, sides, full image of item, close ups of any markings and any helpful info (history, dates, etc) you can provide on the item in question!!! Have fun!!!!

 

I can't get much past 5%. As soon as I learn something new in one ear, something old falls out the other!
