This is a very charming little figurine which was originally released as one of the series of Months of the Year. This series was modelled by Freda Doughty for Royal Worcester.
This cute composition is entitled October.
This one shows a little boy out in the woods in the autumn. He is surprised to come across some little red squirrels. One is seen sneaking around the bottom of the plinth - and another cheeky one - runs up the little boy's leg in search of food.
Again- as an earlier issue - it is most sensitively painted. It is a harder model to find in this series - and this is reflected in my price.
It has a black Worcester mark to the base - which dates this to around the 1960s.
It is of course in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or restorations.
The little figurine measures about 8 inches in height.
