animal farm question (well, it does say that on the search parameters):)
Paul S.:
sorry if this seems a little flippant - coming so soon after in depth discussions about pre-war British glass. Just thought you would like to see my friends ;D But seriously - just wondered if anyone recognized the heavy looking clear duck, the opalescent/cranberry (hollow) wabbit, or the sommerso style horse thingy. Don't really have the space for them, so guess they will all be going soon, but grateful for any comments, and thanks for looking. I do know that some of the smaller ones are Wedgwood, one is Gozzo, big ducks are Murano (generic) and the pig is Mantorp (Sweden), and the Wedgwood 'foxes glacier mints' polar still does have its label. cheers.
Paul S.:
just realized I forgot to include this little fella - Wedgwood also, but unfortunately missing a mill. or so of his beak. Designed for bits to break off I should think, with extensions like these. There were a pair, but the other one was missing a bit too much to keep. :) I think these must be uncommon, as I haven't seen any others, and just stylised I guess, not really supposed to be any particular bird.

Paul, it is challenging to ID animals, even with a clear view of the whole beastie. The horse looks like one of the Pilgrim-Rainbow types to me in its form, but I haven't seen colors like this. The duck in the middle looks like it could be Barbini, but I can't tell without seeing a good view of the whole duck.

I checked and your duck isn't this one: http://whitefriars.com/isit_contents.php?ID=1530 but it would have been nice if it had been!

Oh, I see. You meant that heavy looking clear duck. I was confused about which one you meant. Humble apologies.
