Elizabeth II Silver Pig Figurine Tessiers Limited, 1989
Hallmarked London
Description
A fine Elizabeth II silver pig figurine, hallmarked London, 1989, made by Anthony & Richard Parsons trading as Tessiers Limited. Crafted with exceptional realism and expressive artistry,, the figurine features a naturalistically modelled seated pig, expertly sculpted with life-like anatomical accuracy. The body is further enhanced with finely chased skin folds, detailed snout texture, and a charmingly curled tail, lending the piece a distinctive and endearing character. The polished silver surface accentuates its graceful proportions and crisp, masterfully executed detailing from head to hoof. A particularly fine example of late 20th-century British novelty silver, reflecting the enduring English fascination with cast animal models, and equally suited to formal mantel display or as a notable addition to a collection of fine animalier silver.
