FAQs

Spill vases were 19th-century ceramic vessels designed to hold rolled paper spills or wood splints used for transferring fire from a hearth to candles or pipes. Produced extensively in the Staffordshire potteries, these earthenware vessels combined functional storage with decorative figurative sculpture for fireplace display.

Staffordshire figures were typically press-moulded from earthenware clay in separate hollow sections before assembly. After an initial bisque firing, the pieces received a lead glaze and were hand-painted with overglaze enamel colours, often finished with applied clay detailing to represent foliage or moss.

Authentic Victorian Staffordshire pottery usually lacks maker marks, features small firing vent holes, and exhibits light crazing within the lead glaze. Period pieces generally feel light relative to modern reproductions and show distinct hand-painted enamel brushwork with natural wear to the painted surface.

These figurative ceramics are traditionally styled symmetrically on a mantelpiece, sideboard top, or display shelf to establish visual balance. Placing them against neutral backdrops or alongside minimalist decor allows their polychrome glazes and historical forms to function as focal points.

Clean earthenware figures using a soft dry brush or a gently dampened microfibre cloth, taking care not to submerge the unglazed base or porous earthenware body in water. Avoid harsh chemical detergents, solvents, and abrasive pads, which can strip overglaze enamels and gilding.
