Description
For sale is a stunning, highly collectible matching pair of Just Cats & Co. Siamese Cat figurines. These are early, hand-painted pieces from the renowned Staffordshire pottery, featuring the sought-after "Sleeping/Curled" pose.

Key Features & Provenance:
- Artisan Marked: Both pieces bear the handwritten initials "SM" of the original painter, alongside the official printed backstamp.
- Original Condition: Includes the original "Just Cats & Co." gold foil stickers on the base—a rare find for pieces of this era.
- Exquisite Condition: These figurines are in exceptional vintage condition. There is absolutely no crazing, no chips, and no cracks. (Note: A couple of very minor surface scuffs consistent with age, but nothing that detracts from their display quality).
- Dimensions: see pictures
Collector's Note:
Unlike later mass-produced versions, these earlier Staffordshire pieces are prized for their superior hand-painted detailing and high-gloss finish. Finding a matching pair in this "curled" pose with no crazing is becoming increasingly difficult. A perfect addition to any serious feline or British pottery collection.
