Britains 1950s Zoo Mountain Goat Flat Lead Figure

A graceful 1950s Britains Zoo mountain goat in flat cast lead, with a poised natural stance, soft grey colouring and a beautifully understated character.

Made by Britains Ltd as part of the Zoo Series, this figure belongs to the distinctive flat silhouette style, giving the mountain goat a wonderfully simple and graphic outline. The carefully formed stance captures the sure footed quality of the animal, while the restrained colouring keeps the overall effect quietly elegant.

At 4.5 cm high and 4.5 cm long, the figure has a satisfying presence within this series without losing the charm of miniature modelling. Its natural pose makes it particularly appealing, with the character coming from the shape and silhouette rather than excessive painted detail.

Moderate paint loss and surface wear have developed into an authentic aged patina, while the figure remains stable and intact. The softened finish gives it the gentle appearance of an original piece that has naturally mellowed over time.

A quietly handsome Britains Zoo figure, capturing the calm character and sure footed grace of the mountain goat.
