Polka Dot Zebra English Pub Apron

Aprons such as this one are worn by the staff of the world famous and entirely mythical Polka Dot Zebra pub in England. It features a tiled rendering of the pub's namesake polka-dotted, brown zebra on a blue background. Zebras are not always born with black and white stripes, There are a number of mutations which can can cause variations on colour and form. In 2020 a young, "polka dot" Plains Zebra (Equus quagga), nicknamed Tira, was discovered in Kenya's Masai Mara National Reserve. Tira's unusual appearance is the result of a rare mutation called pseudomelanism. Tira was the inspiration for our Polka Dot Zebra, an artist's conception of an adult animal with this colour variation.
