ABOUT PRODUCTID 5886
This pair of ceramic Staffordshire fireplace dog figurines, crafted in England in the mid-20th century, exemplifies the tradition of English decorative arts rooted in the Victorian era. The figurines depict Cavalier King Charles Spaniels—a motif long favored by the English middle class and aristocracy as a mantelpiece ornament. Their forms are rounded with slightly naive proportions, characteristic of classic Staffordshire ceramics. The cool, glossy white glaze serves as a backdrop for hand-painted black and grey patches, while expressive amber-brown eyes and delicate black noses provide subtle accents. Each dog features a black collar with a gold-painted padlock, adding historical authenticity and a gentle touch of contrast. The high-gloss finish enhances the depth of the molded fur and lends a soft sheen to the surface. Dimensions: height 19 cm, width 15 cm, depth 8 cm. Condition: very good, with no chips, cracks, or significant wear—only minor signs of age appropriate to original vintage pieces. These spaniels evoke the ambiance of English interiors where the fireplace was the heart of the home. Their softly rounded forms and gently naïve expressions recall an era when decorative arts were meant to bring everyday beauty to domestic life. The lustrous glaze catches the light as if the figurines themselves remember glowing fires reflected in their amber eyes. Each detail stands as a testament to craftsmanship and tradition, retaining the simplicity and charm distinctive of Staffordshire
