1920s Britains Yellow Cockerel Tiny Lead Farm Figure

A bright yellow farmyard bird with an upright stance, measuring just 1.5 cm tall.

This original 1920s cockerel was made by Britains Ltd in hand painted lead. Its small standing form captures a familiar farmyard silhouette, with yellow paint providing a distinct spot of colour. Areas of paint loss reflect its age and handling.

Its minute proportions are part of the appeal. For someone who keeps chickens, remembers childhood toy farms or enjoys animal miniatures, this cockerel offers a personal connection in very little space.

Display it in a printer’s tray, a small cabinet or a miniature farm scene. Its yellow colouring works well against dark wood or a green backdrop, where the tiny outline can remain visible among larger pieces.

A small British farm bird with a bold painted finish and a history of play.
