Collection of Beswick Anthropomorphic Animal and Dog Figurines

The collection features a group of nine ceramic Beswick figurines, likely part of a broader series like "Beatrix Potter" or "Brambly Hedge" based on the anthropomorphic animal characters. Five of the figurines are larger and depict characters predominantly dressed in period clothing, standing on small, oval-shaped bases. These include a pig in a suit, a fox or similar animal in a yellow coat, a rabbit-like figure in a white bonnet and purple dress, a badger or similar in brown and yellow attire, and another rabbit-like figure in an orange vest and hat holding a basket. Each of these larger figures appears to have a small paper tag, possibly detailing their name or series information, hanging from their hands or attire. The remaining four figurines are smaller and depict animals without clothing: two white dogs interacting (possibly West Highland White Terriers), a single dark brown dog (likely a Scottish Terrier), and a small white bulldog or similar canine. One larger figurine, possibly a hunter or outdoorsman, is depicted in a green and brown outfit, kneeling or sitting, with an object beside them. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, typical of Beswick, known for their detailed and carefully painted pottery. Visible condition appears to be good with no obvious chips, cracks, or significant wear, though some minor dust or surface grime may be present from display. The colors are vibrant and well-preserved. Given the style and known production of Beswick, these likely date from the mid to late 20th century. The consistent style across all figures suggests they are from the same manufacturer and possibly from related collections, making them desirable to collectors of Beswick and specific character series.
