About Wade
The origins of George Wade Pottery began in 1810 in Burslem, England with a small workshop and a single pottery oven. During this early time, mostly bottles and related pottery items were produced. In the early 19th century, production gave way to the more profitable textile mills specialized ceramics needs. George Wade Pottery continued to produce these textile ceramics along with some industrial ceramic items until a new line was developed in 1927.
Over the years, Wade has produced several hundred of these solid porcelain mini figurines in dozens of different sets. The many ranges include dogs, cats, birds, snow animals, pets, wildlife, farm animals, dinosaurs, nursery rhyme figures, circus figures, miniature houses, leprechauns, monks and even Disney animals. All these figures are highly collectable and some are very valuable as they are becoming more scarce. (Information thanks to the wadewhimsies.com website)
