I have 4 early spice jars and two beer mugs that he made for me.
The mug is identical to the one shown on the site by someone else. i think he may have only made 3 as I ordered 2 and the other was a spare .
This was done when he lived in a Group Architects house in Titirangi and was married to Ruth ,a weaver.
I wish to sell these items and seek advice as to a possible process.

Hi Neil,
As I see it you have two options -
Get in touch with one of the well known Auction Houses e.g. Webbs, Art & Object, Cordys and have a chat to them.
Or list them on Trademe and auction the pieces yourself there.
Good luck.

This thread is being used to authenticate a Len Castle mug.... http://www.trademe.co.nz/pottery-glass/porcelain-pottery/other-nz-manufacturers/auction-693810891.htm

How? I'm not sure!
