Vintage antique medium Staffordshire dog statue black white spaniel porcelain

Vintage antique medium Staffordshire dog statue black white spaniel porcelain Beautiful vintage / antique Staffordshire black white spaniel dog porcelain ceramic statue, in a medium / large size. This is a lovely piece! Unsure of exact agebut there is some crackling to glaze, and slight west 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 on her. 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
