A collection of 10 vintage glazed ceramic figurines manufactured by Wade, likely produced at the Irish Shamrock Pottery factory during the 1950s or 1960s. These figures are often categorized as Wade Whimsies or part of specialized series, known for their stylized sculpting and high-gloss finish. The lot includes the highly recognizable Pink Elephant from the “Perils of Drink” series, which features black painted script on its flank reading “Stick to water” (or a similar variation). Other figures in the collection include a light pink Pig, a gray Octopus, an orange/red Elephant, a tan and dark blue Claw section, a tan Fish, a tan and dark blue Seahorse, a seated Mermaid with blonde hair, a brown Bear, a gray Rhinoceros, and a blue/gray Dolphin resting on a dark blue wave base.
