A porcelain standing poodle on a drum whimsy from the The Circus Animal Series (1994-1999) made for Red Rose Tea by Wade. The poodle measures 1 3/4" tall and "Wade England" is impressed along the bottom side. The condition is pristine, with no chips, cracks, or repairs.
In 1983, Red Rose Tea started regularly including small porcelain "Whimsies" made by English firm George Wade & Son Ltd in their boxes of tea.
