Reverse Earlshall Large Cat
Wemyss Ware® is Scotland's most famous pottery. Hand finished and hand painted in Ceres, Fife at the Griselda Hill Pottery since 1985. Fife is the birthplace of Wemyss® pottery in 1882.
The Earlshall design is named after Earlshall Castle in Fife, which had an avenue of elms with rooks' nests. A strong, stylised design, it sometimes incorporates quotes from popular poems. This pattern was brought out in the early twentieth century. This bold, single colour design is quite modern looking but was first produced around 1910.
Wemyss Ware® cats have a striking similarity to their cousins the Gallé cats made in Nancy by Emile Gallé. They come in a variety of sizes and patterns, always with a cheerful smile. They are our most popular shape.
Our full sized version of the iconic Wemyss Ware® cat was one of the first shapes produced by the Griselda Hill Pottery, and remains one of our most popular to this day.
