Title: Horse wall plaque
Post by: Tigerchips on May 15, 2008, 11:25:53 PM

I didn't think it would be diffiicult to identify a wall plaque until I found these two.

It has the same Pacman eyes as this one...

I bought the horse plaque with a Keele Street Pottery flying duck so i'm wondering...?

I've looked in the Beswick and Sylvac book but nothing.

TC have you looked through this site? http://www.bossonsdatabase.com/home.whb They seem to do a lot of the animal head plaques amongst all sorts of other stuff! Amazing site.

Thank's Anne. Bossons are usually made from plaster, though I think they also did pottery too. I've had a look but, alas no, non the same.

Oh well, let's see what else we can find TC. :)  That Bossons site is worth knowing about isn't it?

Keele Street Pottery
Cortendorf
Grindley

I have but I can't seem to find any wall plaques by them. Coopercraft has wall plaques but they seem to be all matte ones.
