Staffordshire dog Staffordshire Figurine statue black white spaniel porcelain

Staffordshire dog Staffordshire Figurine statue black white spaniel porcelain Beautiful vintage Staffordshire black white spaniel dog porcelain ceramic statue, in a medium / large size. This is a lovely piece! Unsure of exact age but there is some crackling to glaze, and slight wear to gilding, as you can see in photos (which both suggest could be older). The smaller, irregular hole in base also indicates age and possible authenticity, but cannot say for certain whether this is an older replica or not. In any case it is a gorgeous dog. Love the expression and brushwork. Base length approx 5.25” Base width approx 3.25” Total height approx 6-5/8” Weight approx 428g Tags : staffordshire , staffordshire dog , mantle dog , flat back , vintage porcelain, antique porcelain , chinoiserie
