Staffordshire Figurine "Young Highland Boy Standing by a Sheep", circa 1860

Creator: Staffordshire
Offered by: Clive Devenish Antiques

Description
Mid-19th Century Staffordshire porcelain figurine depicts a Scotitsh highlander young boy standing next to an oversized sheep. He is dressed in typical formal garb wearing a green, white, and orange kilt; a navy blue jacket and a formal feathered headdress. The lamb is textured to simulate his fur. Colors are crisp and not faded; while there is crazing throughout indicating 19th century period Staffordshire manufacture. There is a long craze line to the rear; it is not a crack---only penetrates the glaze (see image). All original condition with no restoration; genuine and authentic quality article of English Staffordshire.
Dimensions: 2.5" deep x 5" wide x 8" high.
