Description

A vintage studio pottery seated cat figurine, by Carn Pottery, Penzance, Cornwall from the 1970s or so. 

Carn Pottery was John Beusmans; he used muted blue, brown and green glazes over a pale neutral-toned clays and is best known for his geometric Cubist or angular vases. This cat would have been moulded, then a blue/green wash applied, which has been rubbed back to reveal highlights and lowlights. The subtle raised motifs include a flower to his chest and a large flower to his spine. John was inspired by the Cornish sea and landscapes and primitive Celtic/Runic Studio Pottery designs.

Stamped within with the Carn Pottery details and model no ‘Z6’. 
12cm tall x 9cm wide x 5.5cm deep. 
One fresh chip to a front foot, otherwise great condition.
These are all slightly different.
