1920s Britains Lying Goose Hand Painted Lead Farm Figure

A resting goose in cream painted lead, with feather detail across its compact body.

This original 1920s goose was made by Britains Ltd for its Farm Series. Cast in hollow lead and hand painted, it measures just 2.5 cm long. The low resting pose captures an everyday moment of farmyard life, with subtle modelling giving definition to the feathers.

For someone drawn to water birds or countryside scenes, this miniature offers a familiar subject with a quiet presence. It might recall geese resting beside a pond or the small animals arranged within a childhood toy farm.

Display it in a cabinet compartment, a printer’s tray or alongside standing birds in a farm diorama. Its low profile brings variety to a group, while the cream colouring remains visible against dark wood or a painted backdrop.

An early British farm bird with a restful pose and an aged hand painted finish.
