Mick & Sheila Casson

A huge crock pot (approx 12in tall) which was described as by Alan Ward - the mark seems to match but I can’t find any other examples of his work in a salt glaze. It’s beautifully made, with what appear to be kanji symbols applied to the neck. Any thoughts appreciated.

Oh, I hadn’t thought about that at all. I’ll do some more research. Thank you!

Thanks, Naomi, I’ve tracked down several almost identical bread crocks (in form) by Michael Casson so it’s safe to say it’s by him. This was one of the ‘extras’ in an auction lot I bought solely for a little Phil Rogers jar in it - so a nice surprise, it will be staying now!

This is a studio pottery bowl with a distinctive landscape pattern and an impressed mark to the base - it is either a W or an M in a circle then a character underneath perhaps an O - does anyone recognise this please?

Possibly by Sheila Casson, Wobage Farm 1977?

Hi - Thank you and I do definitely think this is by Sheila Casson - after checking the marks book it shows she did do 'Landscape Bowls' circa 1977 and the mark does match so thank you.
