Antique matched pair of Victorian Staffordshire spaniels — green with copper lustre. Each piece moulded with the number 3 to the base. One dog displays a slightly different mussel detail; the other has a hairline crack to the base (stable and shown in images). Good original paint and lustre with typical age-related wear consistent with 19th-century Staffordshire ceramics.
Dimensions (approx.): 8.5 in. high × 5 in. long × 3.5 in. deep (each).
Condition notes:
One spaniel: slight variation in mussel motif from its pair.
Other spaniel: hairline crack to base; no major loss or restoration observed.
Both: surface crazing and minor fleabites consistent with age.
A handsome Victorian decorative pair, ideal for collectors of Staffordshire ceramics or as an elegant mantel display.
