Mick & Sheila Casson

Michael Casson At an auction a few years ago. There was a lot there to see!

Michael Casson salt glaze jug. If I remember rightly, a lot of this collection came from the estate sale of Harry Horlock Stringer's wife.

Another Michael Casson piece from the same sale as above.

Large Pot bellied salt glaze vase  from Michael Casson. This was the type of vase that he was especially famous for. From the same auction sale as a bove.

I'm sure this is by Michael Casson, can anyone confirm?  I know the mark is similar to David Constantine White but his mark seems to be more circular.

The market in Michael Casson is quite choosy, which indicates a small pool of collectors. The Salt glaze wide bellied jugs sell well, as do the tall ones. Equally the modern sgraffito bowls known as the 'swimmers' do well. But as you say Naomi, chargers tend to be less popular. Another place to look at for prices is Maak, a high end online studio pottery auction house. Just Google it.

This little saltglaze pot stands 8½cm tall. It has a maker's mark (see side-on photo), but it's unreadable. The base has three stilt marks. The other sides are pretty much the same as those shown in the photos, except for glaze variations. Any help with identifying the maker would be much appreciated.

I also own one with the Casson mark

Sheila Casson jug

Davee's Wobage marked pots are interesting. They were only used for the first two years at Wobage, 1977-79. It was only from 1979 that he started the Stoneware and Salt glazing for which he is famed for. Very much a transition mark.

please may we see the swimmers on this thread Davee

Labelled as Mick Casson but just double checking the attribution before adding to the Casson thread

All looks fine to me!

Looks right

I have seen several Mick Casson pieces with just the written mark. Mores than any other potter. This one looks completely kosher!

Cheers. I’ll merge it with the main thread

My little offering - a Mick Casson 'Landscape' bowl

That is Very sad.
