Description

These lovely Staffordshire figures are in exceptionally good condition for their age (just one tiny factory chip to the base under the milkmaid and minor wear to the gilt on the horns of the cows). The figures are striking because of their size and have been well made. They are very pleasing to the eye.

Victorian Staffordshire figures are earthenware ceramic ornaments produced in the Staffordshire potteries region of England during the 19th century. They were designed as accessible decorative pieces for middle and working-class homes, frequently featuring pastoral themes, historical events, animals, or popular celebrities of the era.

These figures were constructed from moulded white earthenware clay, covered in a clear lead glaze, and painted with overglaze enamel colours. Gilt highlights were often applied to gild horns, clothing details, or decorative accents.

Authentic 19th-century pieces typically exhibit press-mould construction with hollow interiors, small air vent holes on the back or base, and natural wear to the overglaze enamels. Flatback figures designed for mantelpieces usually feature unpainted or minimally modelled backs.

These pastoral ceramics complement rustic and traditional interior styles when arranged in pairs on a fireplace mantelpiece, styled alongside books on open shelving, or displayed within a glass fronted dresser.

Dust figures gently with a soft dry brush or microfiber cloth. Avoid immersing cold-painted or enamel-decorated earthenware in water, as moisture can penetrate glaze crazing and damage fragile overglaze details.
