Miniature Stylised Boars - possibly Kolonyama Pottery, Lesotho

Post by AlanH on October 24th 2012, 7:56 pm

I think I've seen this decoration on a larger English piece, or are they mass produced far eastern?
Size about 12 cm long by 9 cm tall.

They look European (British) to me. I recall Patricia Eeles makes animals, but I've not seen boars before.

Thank you Naomi, my inclination was also that they are British but I'm still a novice!

Possibly by Joe Finch's Kolonyama Pottery, Lesotho. A set of animals came up for ID recently on another forum and he said they made a lot of them at Kolonyama
