Bossons - "Eskimo" - Great Vintage Wall Mask - From England, c 1970

$200 USDBossons - "Eskimo" - Great Vintage Wall Mask - From England, c 1970

Collectibles:Bossons:"Eskimo":Wall Mask
This fabulous wall mask has been very popular throughout the world. The expression is simply great. This is a large wall mask, 8 inches tall. It is in Excellent Condition. These wall masks are wonderful collectibles at prices that are still reasonable. The correct approach for collectors is to remember that condition is extremely important for a piece to appreciate in value. Damaged pieces have a far smaller number of people who want them, and usually have to be sold very cheaply compared to ...
Bossons - Amazingly Lifelike "Sardinian" - c 1967

$85 USDBossons - Amazingly Lifelike "Sardinian" - c 1967

Collectibles:Bossons:"Sardinian":Wall Mask
I am pleased to offer one of the rarely seen Bossons wall masks. This is "Sardinian." He is in Very Good to Excellent Condition, with only the smallest rub on his collar. Sardinian measures 6 inches tall, and 5 inches across at the widest. Bossons no longer produces the wonderful wall masks that so many people are collecting. They are still affordable, but, of course, the condition is extremely important. Poor condition can decrease the value to almost nothing. Sardinian is referenced throughout ...
Bossons Limited Edition - "Colonel Custer and Chief Sitting Bull" - Congleton, Engla

$300 USDBossons Limited Edition - "Colonel Custer and Chief Sitting Bull" - Congleton, England

Collectibles:Bossons:General Custer:Chief Sitting Bull
This is an amazing piece to be in such great condition. With the exception of a few small paint rubs on the back, this is in Excellent Condition. As with so many Bossons wall masks, the details and realism of this piece are marvelous. This piece was produced in 1989, and still has the original factory tag intact (see photos, which are part of our description). This is a good sized piece, measuring about 8 inches (diagonal). Bossons are marvelous collectibles, since they can give you enjoyment ...
REDUCED Bossons - "Cavalier" - Very Rare Early Wall Sculpture, Large  - England, c 1

$350 USD Offers ConsideredREDUCED Bossons - "Cavalier" - Very Rare Early Wall Sculpture, Large - England, c 1962

Collectibles:Bossons:"Cavalier":Wall Mask
"Cavalier" means "horseman" and was used in England in the 1640s for the gaily dressed troops devoted to Charles I, as opposed to the "Roundheads" the name given to a follower of the Parliamentary cause during the English Civil War. This wonderful fellow was first released in 1960. and was discontinued in 1963. This particular piece was made either 1962 or 1963. (Dating Bossons is fairly easy, as the back of the piece was changed several times.) This is in Excellent Condition. He is a large ...
Bossons - RARE Shelf Ornament -"Sikh" -  England,  c 1963

$175 USDBossons - RARE Shelf Ornament -"Sikh" - England, c 1963

Collectibles:Bossons:Sikh Bust
This is one of only 4 free standing shelf ornaments ever produced by Bossons, and it was in limited production from 1963 to 1966 only. I find the Sikhs quite interesting in their own right. While they were at first a religious sect, they became more of a brotherhood. Almost all Sikhs flourish the beard and turban. They live by the "5 K's" - They are Kesha, the long hair wrapped in a turban. Kangha, the wooden or ivory comb. Kachha, the military knee britches. Kara - a steel bracelet. and Kirpan, ...
Bossons - "Himalayan"  - Vintage - c 1968 Congleton,  England

$100 USDBossons - "Himalayan" - Vintage - c 1968 Congleton, England

Collectibles:Bossons:"Himalayan":Wall Mask
Another highly collectible (and affordable!) Bossons Wall Mask. Such realism; even the weathered face, and especially the great expression. The Imagical World of Bossons by Robert E. Davis references and pictures the Himalayan on pages 73, 79, 85, 90, 93, 96, 97, and 143. This is in Excellent Condition with only very minor age appropriate wear and no losses.

$85 USDBossons - Wildlife Series - "Bluetits" - c 1968 Congleton, England

Collectibles:Bossons:Birds:Family:"Bluetits":England:Wall Mask:Vintage:Decorative:Decorative Arts:Nestlings:Nest:England:English:British:Great Britain
This charming wall hanging depicts a wonderful "family" of bluetits. You can see the hungry mouths protruding from the nest, as Mom feeds them and Dad proudly hovers over them. How unusual to find one in Excellent Condition with no losses! Bossons are still reasonable enough to start a fine collection without mortgaging the farm! Even if you are not a collector, having a lovely taste of spring and happy family on your wall is certainly sure to put a smile on your face. This piece measures 4 and ...
Bossons - Very Rare Shelf Ornament - "Himalayan" c 1963  Congleton,  England

$125 USD Offers ConsideredBossons - Very Rare Shelf Ornament - "Himalayan" c 1963 Congleton, England

Collectibles:Bossons:"Himalayan":Shelf Ornament
This is one of the four shelf ornaments introduced in 1963, all of which had very limited production. The Himalayan is of Mongolian ancestry, and is depicted wearing the lambskin cap to ward off the cold mountain air. The Himalayan Mountains form a great natural barrier between India and the large plateau of Tibet, and include the highest mountain in the world, Mount Everest. Many nations lie within the Himalayan Range, including Nepal, Kashmir, Mustang, Sikkim, and Bhutan. This is 6 inches tall ...
SOLD Rare Bossons "Caspian Man" - c 1959

SOLDSOLD Rare Bossons "Caspian Man" - c 1959

Collectibles:Bossons:Caspian Man:Wall Mask:Moslem Dignitary
Caspian Man was one of the first Character Wall Masks that Bossons produced, and was only made from1959 to 1962. This mask is especially rare because of his condition, which is Very Good to Excellent, with only the lightest marks on back from hanging. Caspian Man characterizes natives around the Caspian Sea in the Middle East. He is depicted wearing the laffe-wrapped tarboosh or fez, which marks him as a dignitary to the Muslim faith. This is a must for the serious and sophisticated Bossons ...
SOLD Bossons "Eskimo" - Rare Closed Edition!  c 1970

SOLDSOLD Bossons "Eskimo" - Rare Closed Edition! c 1970

Collectibles:Bossons:"Eskimo"
This is a rarely seen Bossons wall mask; made even more desireable by its Excellent Condition. Measuring 8 inches, this happy face is sure to lift your whenever you look at it! Bossons are still affordable, but I expect their value to continue to appreciate, making them wonderful not only for the joy they bring, but also for possible future appreciation.
