Vintage Beswick Porcelain Fox Figurine

DESCRIPTION
A highly sought-after and increasingly scarce Beswick fox, model 1016A, presented in the coveted gloss finish and distinguished by the rare black tail tip variation. This piece captures the elegance and quiet tension of the fox mid-stride, with beautifully modeled musculature and a luminous, richly glazed coat that reflects the exceptional craftsmanship synonymous with early Beswick production. Pre-1967 examples of this model are particularly desirable, and this example offers a refined, collectible presence that feels equally at home in a sporting library, study, or layered vignette.

CONDITION
Excellent vintage condition. Mild craquelure present on the underside, consistent with age, and not visible when displayed. No chips or cracks to the body.

SIZE
9.5” long x 5” tall

MATERIAL
Glazed ceramic

WHY WE LOVE THIS
This is one of those quietly powerful pieces that elevates everything around it. The scale is substantial enough to anchor a vignette, while the rare black tail tip adds a level of nuance and collectibility that seasoned Beswick collectors immediately recognize. It has that unmistakable English sporting heritage feel—refined, timeless, and effortlessly Ralph Lauren.

STYLING SUGGESTION
Style this fox atop a stack of worn leather-bound books in a study or keeping room, paired with antique brass equestrian accents or a vintage riding crop. It also makes a striking statement on a console layered with dark wood tones, boxwoods, and a softly lit picture light above—leaning fully into that elevated, Western Reserve meets English country aesthetic.
