FAQs

A spill vase is a hollow ceramic container historically used to hold wooden spills, which were thin strips of wood used to transfer a flame from a fireplace to a candle or pipe.

These figures were typically made from earthenware, hand-modelled or slip-cast in moulds, and hand-painted with ceramic colours before being glazed and fired.

Authentic pieces often feature crazing in the glaze, vent holes on the underside or back, hand-painted details with minor firing imperfections, and earthenware bodies rather than modern porcelain.

These characterful ceramic pieces work well styled on mantelpieces, bookshelves, or side tables, adding a touch of historical whimsy and colour to eclectic or traditional interiors.

Keep Staffordshire pottery out of direct sunlight to prevent paint fading, dust gently with a soft dry cloth, and avoid using water or cleaning agents on pieces with fragile hand-painted surfaces.
