Description

A rare, oversized Staffordshire pottery figure of a Newfoundland, c. 1850. The hound being much larger than the usual model, with much finer modelling, particularly in the face of the dog, with his mouth open, to reveal his tongue and teeth, whilst having a doleful expression.

Painted with black spots, feathered at the edges, his tongue red. He wears a gilt collar and locket.

Set upon an underglaze cobalt blue mound base, heightened in gilt.

Whilst it is difficult to judge the size of the figure with photographs, the usual model of this dog, is about half the size of this example.

Height – 17.5 cm, 6 7/8”.

Length – 16 cm, 6 1/4”.

Depth – 6.7 cm, 2 5/8”.

Condition – Very minor wear to the overglaze black enamel. No damage. No restoration.

Date of Manufacture

Philip Carrol Antiques has dated this Staffordshire Pottery Dog to the 1850s.

FAQs

Staffordshire pottery figures, including dogs, were mass-produced in Staffordshire, England, primarily during the Victorian era as decorative mantelpiece ornaments for the middle classes.

These figures were typically made from earthenware or pottery, hand-painted with coloured glazes, and often featured characteristic crazing in the glaze from the firing process.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit fine age-related crazing, hand-painted detailing with minimal modern pigment consistency, vent holes underneath, and weight consistent with period earthenware.

They make excellent statement pieces on mantelpieces, bookshelves, or side tables, adding a touch of traditional character and colour to eclectic or classic interior schemes.

Keep them out of direct sunlight to prevent paint fading, dust gently with a soft dry brush, and avoid using water or chemical cleaners on crazed glazes.
