A Pair of Staffordshire Pottery Zebras circa - 1855
A delightful pair of Staffordshire Zebras.
Our Staffordshire potters
produced animals of all shapes and sizes.
Inspired by the travelling menageries,
you can imagine how these exotic beasts
fascinated the public and our potters.
Some of the most striking animal figures
were these elegant Zebras.
This pair are georgeous,
they are wonderfully modelled,
beautifully and dramatically painted.
A lovely pair.
As good as you will find.
In excellent condition,
and with no restoration.
