Plichta Giraffes
« on: October 21, 2008, 03:30:29 PM »
Found at a local Fair- Never seen Plichta Giraffes before.
Also two of my Bovey Tracey pig money boxes- the fat one still has the remnants of a Trentham Ware sticker

I love the giraffes.  The piggy banks too.  I found this excellent website devoted to piggy banks which might be of interest.  There's a link for plichta too. http://www.piggybankpage.co.uk/other_PotteriesA-O.htm

Would that be a Trentham Art Ware label? I knew the firm was located in Devon but I never knew the label was used by Bovey Tracey Pottery.

I don't know what the connection is...?  Still looking.

Can the piggy bank link go in the useful links section TC if its not already there?  I can't find it to add it.

Bovey Tracey made for Plichta (London Retailer) and Trentham Art Ware I believe.
Thank you for looking.
The Plichta large cat with the glass eyes is on my list but never can afford the going prices!
Be Lucky!

Aha, no wonder I couldn't find them.  I thought they were potteries ;D

May be you could add the Plitchta cat to your Christmas list ;)
