A rare original Darbyshire Pottery studio figure, hand-modelled in Western Australia during the formative years of the state’s post-war studio pottery movement.
Produced at the Darbyshire Pottery studio in Innaloo between 1948 and 1959, this piece features a deep iron-toned glaze with hand-painted details and expressive modelling typical of early WA ceramics.
