MOORCROFT 15.5cm LIDDED POT (Shape No 401/5) "FOX And CUBS" (No Lid) (Red Dot)
By Designer Vicky Lovatt FOR THE RSPB BRITISH WOODLAND COLLECTION
(Every once in a while, designers at Moorcroft stumble across a species of plant or animal that captures their imagination and takes them into a new journey of discovery. One of Vicky’s favourite subjects is British wildlife, so foxes have always been a regular feature in her work. This time, however, they are accompanied by a flower new to Moorcroft. Appropriately, the fox and cubs flower, or orange hawkbit, as it is often known, fits nicely into the designer’s scheme of thing. Plants with lyrical, meaningful names that describe a unique appearance or trait, are entertaining and fun. Pilosella fox and cubs wildflowers are just such plants. The name refers to the sunny, daisy-like, rusty orange mature flower and its flanking buds, with fuzzy blackish haloed hair. Of course, Vicky paired these dainty wildlflowers with a depiction of a real mama fox and her cubs, beautifully stylized with pointy ears and soft white bibs on this lovely jar.)
