Antique Victorian Staffordshire Poodle Group with Puppies sits on Rare Cobalt Blue Base. This is a charming and authentic 19th century Staffordshire-style poodle group, featuring a mother poodle and two puppies. Standing on a highly desirable deep cobalt blue plinth base with a hand-painted gold accent line, this piece captures the classic "English Country House" aesthetic.
The poodles feature the iconic "shredded clay" or "confetti" fur technique, Meticulously applied by hand. The base features a hand-painted blue tally mark, consistent with Victorian decorator marks used at various English potteries.Note the delicate painting of the faces and the vibrant blue glaze.
Minor age-appropriate wear to the gold trim and very small "flea bites" to the textured clay fur, which is common for pieces of this age (approx. 150 yrs. old)
