A charming vintage Poole Pottery stoneware owl, hand-modelled in the distinctive textured style used in the 1970s–1980s “Animals & Birds” range. This example is finely detailed, with crisp feather work, soft tonal shading and the expressive eyes Poole is known for.
Stamped POOLE ENGLAND to the base with the JD modeller’s mark, attributed to Poole modeller Jim Darlow, whose animal figures are particularly sought after by collectors.
A lovely decorative piece for collectors of British studio and stoneware animal figures.
