One of the rarest of all the Staffordshire animals that the potteries produced is this bactrian camel (two humps), standing facing left on an oval gilt line base, a halter around its mouth and placed between humps, a leather water skin rests on the grassy ground beneath its feet. This figure is in perfect condition with no damage, repairs or restoration. Harding’s description is incorrect as a dromedary camel only has one hump.
