An utterly charming figure depicting a russet and white dog sitting with a basket of fruit on a waisted cobalt base.
This delightful figure is beautifully made. The modelling and textures are crisp and fresh and the decoration of very good quality.
The figure displays beautifully and is in very good original condition. There is a small knock to part of the front of the base and some negligible nibbles around the bottom. There is a firing flaw down the dog’s back. There is a dusting of kiln soot in the glaze, mostly noticeable on the crown of the dog’s head.
This figure is of excellent quality and fresh out of the mould.
Reference: A. & N. Harding, Victorian Staffordshire Figures 1835 - 1875: Book Three, p. 251, fig. a2727
Height: 6.5”
Date: c. 1850
Provenance: A substantial, high-quality private collection, name unknown. (The former owner’s reference label has been left attached should the buyer be able to identify other figures from the same collection.)
