Description
This is a beautiful Staffordshire figurine that depicts a Scottish couple dressed in period outfit seated under a vine.
The figurine is circa 1855.
The figure has many fine details including attractive facial features, rich clothes and raised flowers around the vine
This is a large figural group. It stands 14" tall and it is 8 3/4" by 3 1/2" at the base.
The figure is in good condition. There is no crazing that is unusual for those figurines, as well as, some gold paint loss. Please refer to the pictures
Staffordshire figures and animals were made by many different potters and factories and were rarely signed.
English pottery figural groups were made during the later part of the 18th Century.
They were potted from simple two-piece press molds. Once dry, the molds were placed together and thin rolls of clay were inserted to seal the seams inside. The next step was to make a small hole, usually on the base, so that air was able to escape during the firing process. After the first firing, the figures were painted with underglaze colors and then dipped into a liquid glaze. Once this process was completed, the figures were then painted with enamel, over glaze, colors and any gilding required and then fired a final time. Due to the deposits of clay left in the molds, the average mold's life would not last for more than 100 figures without severe loss of quality. This is one way to tell the age of the figure, the cleaner and crisper, the earlier it was produced in the mold's life. The more often the mold was used, the less the quality of the figure produced.
