Look for G, WOLFF with a date and the poundage number on a pot. If a pot says G.Wolff and Co, it's from his guild ( potters in other countries who he works with personally). For other names, see his site.You can order online from him directly and not get a pot made in China . Some pot designs by potter Peter Wakefield, have now been sourced out to a trained groip of hand trowers in China to take on a line of white pots that do say G. Wolff & Co. Then, there is a relationship with potters in Honduras, in either case, these are still hand thrown pots, but marketed under & Co, Some pots are cast, so they are a bit more fragile, but remember, these are all less costly than actual hand-thrown pots by Mr. Wolff himself. Guy needs to keep a business going, and I believe in his model of controlling who throws his pots under his name,and I respect him for keeping his quality high. Imagining that there is a huge factory with little kids running machines stamping out pots that cost hundreds of dollars each, is not true. Rather, a few craftsman overseas are trained to produce similar pots, but in volumes that help others afford some of these quality pots, in a world where there are far too many crappy pots from Viet Nam and India being produced by corporations who don't care about anything other than the profit margin.
