Buyer's Premium:

Attributed to Wade Ceramics Ltd, this collection of miniature glazed ceramic animal figurines is in the style of the Whimsies range produced in England. The assortment features a variety of wild animals, including a prowling tiger on a naturalistic green base, a hippopotamus in a pale blue-grey glaze, and a seated giraffe with mottled patterning. The group also includes lions in different poses, bears, and several primates in various seated positions. Each piece is finished in the high-gloss, multi-toned glaze typical of mid-20th-century British miniatures. While no maker’s marks are visible in the photographs, these specific models correspond to known designs from the Wade Zooline and Wild Animal series.
