A hollow figurine of Sarah Ponsonby and Lady Eleanor Butler wearing black with a black top hat, on the front of the base are the words "LADIES OF LLANGOLLEN".
The Ladies of Llangollen are probably the most famous lesbian couple in history. Lady Eleanor Butler and Sarah Ponsonby fled Ireland when their families tried to separate them. They lived together at Plas Newydd in Llangollen for over fifty years.
