FAQs

Staffordshire pottery spaniels were mass-produced in the 19th century in the Staffordshire potteries of England, primarily designed as decorative ornaments for mantelpieces in Victorian homes.

These figures were typically made from earthenware or pottery, slip-cast or hand-pressed in moulds, and hand-painted under or over the glaze with metallic oxides.

Authentic pieces often exhibit crazing in the glaze, vent holes on the underside or back, hand-painted facial features with minor variations between the pair, and historical wear appropriate to their age.

They can be displayed symmetrically on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or sideboard to add a touch of historical character and traditional charm to contemporary spaces.

Keep them out of direct sunlight to prevent fading of the overglaze paints, dust gently with a soft, dry cloth, and avoid using chemical cleaners or immersing them in water.
