Description

Antique 19th Century Victorian Staffordshire 12" Spaniel Hand Painted Figure The Staffordshire spaniel was the quintessential Victorian bourgeois status-symbol ornament: no mantelpiece was complete without a pair of spaniels standing guard. Staffordshire dogs were also placed on the window sill. Staffordshire dogs are nowadays collectors’ items. Since the 1720s, spaniels had been produced by pottery factories in Staffordshire. Considering the age of the piece the condition is very good - There is a very small chip in the glaze on the top of the head and there is crazing. Please see photos.
