Lucia Ware White Ceramic Scottish Terrier Dog Figurine

Few ceramic subjects capture the spirit of a breed quite like a well-modelled Scottie — and this compact Lucia Ware figurine does exactly that, with a clean glossy white glaze and softly moulded features that give it an enduring charm.

Produced by Lucia Ware, one of South Africa's most recognisable mid-century ceramic manufacturers, this small dog figurine is modelled as a seated Scottish Terrier. Lucia Ware produced a wide range of decorative domestic ceramics throughout the 20th century, and their animal-form figurines are among the most characterful and collectible pieces from the range. The compact size and clean white glaze make this Scottie figurine a versatile display piece, equally at home in a dedicated Lucia Ware collection, a broader South African ceramics display, or a curated vintage shelf arrangement. Lucia Ware pieces are increasingly sought after by collectors of South African ceramics, and animal-form figurines from the range are particularly appealing. This example is in visible condition as shown in the images.
