Poole Pottery Stoneware, Tortoise

 Poole Pottery Stoneware Tortoise

A gorgeous Poole Pottery stoneware sculpture of a tortoise. It stands approximately 2.5" tall and about 6" long. It is in excellent condition without damage or repair. This Poole Pottery tortoise was designed by Barbara Linley-Adams and produced from 1979 to 1989. The detailing on this item is excellent. You expect it to walk off at any moment. Please see the photographs to view the back stamp on the base.

Poole ceased producing this stoneware range several years ago. The stoneware style has now become very much sought after by Poole Pottery collectors. As a result, the prices have soared in recent years and items are becoming very difficult to obtain in such good condition.
