A charming vintage novelty brandy balloon glass featuring a Beswick ceramic cat climbing the rim, paired with an internal mouse figure set within an amber-tinted glass bowl.

The contrast between the warm amber glass and the hand-modelled ceramic detail creates a playful yet well-executed decorative piece.

The applied handle takes the form of a climbing cat, produced by Beswick, a well-regarded English pottery manufacturer known for its animal figures.

Inside the bowl, a small mouse sits at the base, visible through the coloured glass, adding a whimsical narrative element to the design.

The glass is raised on a clear stem and circular foot, balancing the bold colouring of the bowl with a classic silhouette.

Pieces of this nature were typically produced as novelty barware during the mid to late 20th century, often collected for their characterful and unusual design.
