Re: Mick & Sheila Casson
The jug below was made by Mick Casson when he was based in London between 1952 and 1959. It is tin glazed earthenware with brush decoration that was typical of his work at the time.

Re: Mick & Sheila Casson
I have a nicely made standardware cup and saucer by Sheila Casson in my collection and a yellow porcelain bowl which I really hope is by Michael (let me down gently if not)
Stoneware cup and saucer with brushed decoration. Made when they were at Prestwood, Bucks (1959-1977) I believe. 9.6cm (height)
Porcelain bowl with sgraffito decoration of stylised landscape through yellow satin glaze. My research suggests that this was made when Michael was at Wobage Farm, nr Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire possibly between 1975 and 1977. 6.8cm (height) 12.5cm (diameter)

A large (35 cm tall) Mick Casson salt-glazed jug that I sold earlier this year. It was originally exhibited in his last solo exhibition at the CPA in 2001 and an image was included in Ceramic Review 189 on page 38 in a feature to advertise the exhibition.

Re: Mick & Sheila Casson
Another one of Mick's salt galzed jugs that I also sold recently and was again originally bought from his 2001 CPA exhibition. This is just over 32 cm tall.

Re: Mick & Sheila Casson
There is a thread dedicated to Michael Casson on here with illustrations of his mark.
https://www.20thcenturyforum.com/t4310-mick-sheila-casson?highlight=casson
It does look like his mark. It is an earlier piece however, and hence not quite so desirable to collectors.
