This is the other pig from that same estate sale. I purchased these about 6 years ago. This is also marked G. Hill Pottery made in Scotland. This is not marked Wemyss. I think this is the older of the 2 pigs.
I had not heard of G.Hill Pottery. They did great painting and I love the personalities of the animals.
I had not heard of G. Hill Pottery either, but when I saw them at that estate sale, I had to buy them. I hope I can someday add to my collection. I would love to have the larger size cat or pig.
Ha! A pig with a rooster tattoo! COOL! [;>)
Thanks, Nevada

Thanks for stopping by, Radegunder!
Your ceramic pigs are beautiful
Thank you, Newfld. I’m glad you like them. They were a lucky find!!
These pigs are just so adorable, love their pretty rooster on grass design :)
Thank you, Jenni. I appreciate your compliment. You are in good company. I'm not sure if you've done any research on the maker, but apparently several members of the British royal family are/were collectors of Wemyss Ware. Both Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother and Prince Charles have collected Wemyss Ware.
That's really wonderful, I can only imagine what a beautiful pottery collection the Royal Family has amassed over the years, someday a visit to the palace & their various homes would be heavenly :)
