Leadbetter was an independent artisan based in Cornwall, known for sculpting wildlife and countrysidethemed pieces during the late 1970s and early 1980s. Their work is usually signed and dated, with a signature rustic texture and charm reflective of English natural settings. These pieces are now sought after for their vintage appeal and folk art authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"M Leadbetter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52604956541275,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0936\/4986\/3003\/files\/57_cae3aebd-5fd3-489b-af31-f9dc0bc7d2cf.jpg?v=1773692224","url":"https:\/\/gifteduk.com\/products\/m-leadbetter-cornwall-bird-figurines-set-of-3-wrens-robin-1979-81-handcraft","provider":"Gifted UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
