| Pair Staffordshire recumbent spaniels with children |
| Victorian, circa 1860. Tallest is 7.1ins (18 cm) high, 6.5ins (16.5 cm) wide, 3.1ins (8 cm) depth. |
| Pair of Staffordshire figures with a childhood theme which feature a boy and girl seated on spaniels, recumbent on a shaped base. |
| The pieces have possibly been matched together at some stage. We think this because they have different colouration. |
| Russet and white version. Dull gilt embellishment. Decorated in the round with decoration to the front and the reverse. |
