MICHAEL CASSON, LARGE STONEWARE JUG, LATE 20TH CENTURY, saltglazed, impressed seal mark, 39cm high, Literature: Cooper, Emmanuel, Obituary, Independant newspaper, 17th December 2003. Note: Michael Casson (1925-2003) was one of the pioneers in the renaissance of studio pottery in the post-war period, a greatly respected and a charismatic teacher and educator who influenced several generations of potters. After reading Bernard Leach`s 1940 `A Potter`s Book`, Casson responded positively to its concept of unity and wholeness, and its advocacy of functional and individual wares. Together with his wife, Sheila, he sought to put Leach`s ideas into practice.
