I'd hazard a guess at Lochgilphead, a Scottish pottery that produced a lot of these naive-looking cats.

Is that Collaig at Lochgilphead rather than Highbank at Lochgilphead or even a different pottery? (Seems to be a few round there - I'm confused!!! and I've been there and I don't remember seeing any of them  :blush:)

Some Collaig pics here: http://www.lunga.com/html/collaig.html
Cheers!

Kinda Reminds me of the idea

If you mix up all these examples here, that it what I am thinking, lol.

The smoooth design and This Idea and the Nesting idea/look and This example = (maybe) nothing more than Russian Folk Art with a sort of majolica technique(??)
To make a long story longer.... :thd:
