Ray Cook was a Melbourne-based accountant who established Ray Cook Pottery in 1948 and Raynham Ceramic in 1950, in East Bentleigh, Victoria.
Ray Cook Pottery made a range of slipcast tableware and vases, and some larger wheel-thrown items, under the insignia 'Ray Cook'.
Raynham specialised in slipcast vases using a variety of different labels over time that are well-documented in the Encyclopaedia of Australian Potters' Marks.
In 1964, Cook bought the nearby Guy Boyd Pottery and continued to make its popular ramekin lines under both the Ray Cook and Raynham labels. Both firms operated until October, 1973, when they were bought by Bendigo Pottery as part of its expansion program. Bendigo Pottery continued to use the Raynham brand for a short time.
