Benbow\'s Farmhouse (Herefordshire) was released in 1987 as part of the Main Collection series from the David Winter Cottages collection. This piece was retired in 1993
David Winter’s sculpted a mouse or owl on to many of his works.
At the end of 1991 it was suddenly realised that the mouse had disappeared and that an owl had taken its place. The owl is even trickier to find than its predecessor as it is mainly hiding in bushes and ivy.
However, when collectors discovered what had happened to the mouse they were appalled at the loss of their old friend and petitioned John Hine Studios for its return. Realising the mouse\'s popularity the mouse returned two years later and he can be seen again on the 1993 Collectors Guild plaque \"On the Riverbank\" with the owl flying away.
I am not seeing the mouse on this sculpture.This item is over 30 years old and still retains its base sticker.
David Winter is a United Kingdom born artist, who has been designing these quaint cottages for over 30 yars and they are still coveted for their detail and charm.
Perfect for the collector or as a gift.
