^Lot 398 Beswick Figural Ceramic Mouse Teapot

A novelty figural ceramic teapot produced by Beswick, England, modeled as a seated mouse holding a wedge of Swiss cheese. The piece is constructed of glazed earthenware, rendered in naturalistic tones of tan and brown for the fur, with pink detailing for the ears and curved tail. The mouse's head serves as the lift-off lid, the long, curved tail forms the handle, and the triangular yellow cheese wedge functions as the spout. The underside of the base is marked with a circular black stamped inscription reading "BESWICK. ENGLAND."
