It took me a while but when I did there were two pairs so I bought them both after I noticed one of the ears on the growling one was chipped, of course the more detailed one was the chipped soldier !! Haven't seen a pair since but I suppose eventually I will. Wasn't even looking for them at the time, in amongst a bunch of others including a sturgeon, whale, monkey etc...  man you really gotta look close for chipping, not for a minute did I think something that small would have damage but I guess it can be compared to looking for damage on mibs.

Yeah, no kidding! Super easy to miss chips on these little guys! I haven't come across any larger pieces in the wild as of yet. The biggest one we have is the turtle pictured. An antique mall owner/friend of mine has a catalog with listings of various Wade pieces that shows ranges in size, rarity and value. According to that book, they supposedly marked everything, either "Wade England " or "Wade Eng". But I have seen pieces in places that are so very similar to the Wade look that are unmarked, so I wonder...

The little Czechoslovakian bunny charm. When made, it came with a little collar, which sadly wasn't with him when I found him mixed in with a bunch of old marbles. It's amazing this little guy has survived almost a hundred years without being seriously damaged! Love this little piece of glass 😊

Made from the 1890's up to the 1930's....and the collar came with a tiny bead in it. Wish I had that collar! 😞
