Lot 81: A Trio of Graduated Staffordshire Style Ceramic Seated Spaniel Figurines
A set of three graduated earthenware figurines modelled as seated spaniels. The grouping consists of one larger central figure and two smaller flanking dogs. Each dog is rendered with molded fur textures and pendulous ears, decorated with hand-painted iron-red patches over a creamy-white glaze. The facial features are detailed with black-painted eyebrows, eyelashes, and muzzles, alongside amber-coloured eyes. Each spaniel wears a molded collar featuring a pendant locket detail. There are no factory marks, model numbers, or decorator marks visible. An orange adhesive lot sticker is present on the head of the dog on the right.
Condition report:
All three figurines exhibit all-over crazing to the glaze. There is significant rubbing and loss to the iron-red overglaze enamel, most prominently on the chests and lower bodies of the two smaller figures. An orange adhesive sticker is affixed to the forehead of the dog on the right. Typical minor kiln-related firing flaws are present. No large chips, cracks, or professional repairs are visible from the front view.
