5x7 no chips or cracks. The addition of the signature 'H. Gorrie 1993' transforms this ceramic cow from a mass-produced novelty item into a piece potentially created by a specific artist. While the exact identity and renown of 'H. Gorrie' are not provided, a signature and date on a ceramic piece generally indicate a more deliberate artistic creation, possibly a one-of-a-kind or limited-edition work. Such signed pieces often carry a higher collectible value than unsigned, factory-made items. Ceramics signed by artists, even those not widely famous, are often sought after by collectors who appreciate the individual touch and craftsmanship. The year 1993 firmly places this item within the contemporary art pottery movement of the late 20th century. The value of such pieces is highly dependent on the artist's reputation, the quality of the work, and its condition, but the signature itself adds a layer of provenance and potential desirability.
