Hi, 
I am an Australian potter and collector of pottery and am yet to own a Len Castle piece but hopefully this will change soon Smile 

I am after his earlier hanging sculptural pieces (similar to attached image) 

Len Castle and Ruth Castle Castle-len-1924-new-zealand-untitled-3260060

I am also after more information on his former partner RUTH CASTLE, either how I may get in contact with her or anyone that may be wanting to part with one of her beautiful weaving sculptures, garlic baskets? 

Thanks for your time and look forward to hearing from anyone who may help in my search. 

Best, 
Josh

Hi seadreams,  I had to remove your image as to have it on the site was breaching copyright laws.  You can edit your post and add a link to that photo.

Pieces of Len Castle's work like those and weaving by Ruth Castle can be found in the quality Auction Houses for example Art & Object, Webbs, Cordys .  If you contact them they will be able to let you know when they will be auctioning similar items.  Good luck.
