Don't you just love those lips. Here's a quirky item from the mid-1950s. A wonderful spotty fish with green fins and bright red lips.

According to Petra on Pottery, this is a design by Anneliese Beckh, Schmiders main designer between 1950 and 1983. I don't often come across Schmider pottery but I did do a posting on a couple of items from the Tigris range some time ago: Tigris cats
