The Donkeys

We call them our Beach Donkey & our Little Donkey.

Popular with horse, donkey and beach lovers alike, these are ever popular figures for us. They also fit well with our Ceramic Nativity, featuring Mary, Joseph & Child. 

Painted with a unique, varying Brown that we blend in-house here at Rye Pottery, these Donkeys are lovingly sponged by hand with charming faces added by paintbrush. The base is worth a look too, with hand-painted delicate thistles nestling at the bottom.

Available In Large or Small, these are sold separately.

Modelled originally for us by sculptor and ceramicist Tony Bennett.
