Castlecove Pottery County Kerry Ireland

I bought this for a fiver , it's 10.5" tall and initialed JT , on the base is castlecove pottery Co. Kerry Ireland , Kinda louis look about it I think , I have cotacted a pottery in the aerea to see if it's the same .

I bought my first piece of Castlecove pottery today and it won't be my last, I LOVE the natural form of this three inch bud vase ,the ragged edge to the neck giving it that 'just picked' look and the superb glaze effect completing it's natural gourd-like effect.
I rank it alongside Geoffrey Swindell pottery and would happily display Swindell and Castlecove on the same shelf of a cabinet.

Interesting. Is it new and does it have any maker's markings?

Let's see the base Dan

not new,I don't think the pottery exists these days?



£4.00 on ebay and it's the best piece I have bought in many months

bump

I have just found the maker of my vase,her name is June Turner and she potted between 1970 and 1999

Hi All,
The little round pot belonging to Dan and also Ed's taller one were both made by my mother, June.I would say the square shaped taller one is quite a bit older.She made variations on both these designs throughout her career.She also made very distinctive wall-hanging pieces that looked like water-bottles or wine skins-very Mexican in appearance.They'd be interesting to find.All the best, Cara.

do you have any photo's of your Mum's pottery Cara?
