Lot 461: Three Vintage Ceramic Animal Figurines, including a Melba Ware Jack Russell Terrier
A group of three vintage glazed ceramic animal figurines, comprising two dogs and one cat. The central figure, identified through web intelligence as a Melba Ware Jack Russell Terrier puppy dog figurine, depicts a standing terrier with tan and white markings. It bears an orange rectangular sticker ‘461’ on its chest and a white oval sticker ’29’ on its back. The dog on the left, also a standing terrier-type breed, features darker brown markings on a white body. The feline figure on the right is a tan-and-white cat in a sitting pose, marked with an orange rectangular sticker ‘461’ on its front and a white oval sticker ’29’ on its right ear. All items are crafted from ceramic or porcelain with a glossy glaze finish, featuring white bodies accented with shades of brown, tan, and black for features. Likely dating to the mid-20th century, circa 1960s, consistent with Melba Ware production.
