Nothing in nature runs as fast as the cheetah, it's one of the only animals I can watch on the hunt because the chase is over so quickly (while I love wild animals, a bit squeamish on their feeding & mating habits). Here is a 7"H x 9"W colorful cheetah ceramic pitcher by Fitz & Floyd, now discontinued, it was part of their Serengeti collection of 2003. The 5 1-4" pale yellow glass cheetah is by Kosta Boda for the World Wildlife Fund by their artist Paul Hoff, limited series from 1986. My tiny 3" cheetah trinket box joins them in the last photo
I wonder if they made a teapot in the cheetah pattern, beautiful, These figurals work so well together, Jenni !~
Cheetahs are simply amazing....these represent them well :)
Both are very nice!
You know Phil I browsed thru the internet images of Fitz & Floyd's Serengeti collection and don't think they made a teapot with that one, there was also a F&F Exotic Jungle series earlier that had lovely cheetah bookends, covered boxes and a planter though. Thank you so much for the compliment I did want to honor the cheetah, it's such a beautiful animal, I love the tear stained face
Thomas, thank you for the great comment, yep cheetahs are super fast - you've probably seen that commercial where the cheetah races a sports car, of course racing cars can go faster, but the point was that similar to fast cars, cheetahs can accelerate from 0 to 60 in a minute or less - WOW, right
Thank you buckethead for your kind appreciation of both the real cheetah and my little display here, glad you liked this
MrsT I'm so pleased you enjoyed this pair, many thanks for your comment

Thank you Mary and BB2, glad you enjoyed the cheetahs and always grateful for the love and thoughtfulness
Gosh Jenni, your cheetahs are fabulous! The little glass one is adorable and the smile on the trinket box cheetah made me laugh:-) )
All cats ARE fabulous!!! The glass one is stunning- so sleek! And I admit I've never seen a cheetah Toby jug!
FF have always been awesome designers and your trinket box is so different and stylish. Love them both.
The KB cheetah is new to me and wonderful! Unlike them really; particularly the colour. Great piece that Jenni.
Karen I'm so happy you liked my cheetah bunch, they're one of my fave wild animals - I just saw a zoo doc. on TV yesterday where the vets patched up an injured cheetah, then released it in a large area to do an exercise run, the power in that sleek body, and amazing to see it stop & turn "on a dime." My little cheetah family is very grateful for your super thoughtful words and the love, as am I
