20th Century Staffordshire Red and White Begging Spaniel Toby Jug

About the Item

This Staffordshire Spaniel jug is impertinent, from his expression to his hopeful gaze. The eyes seem animated and almost lifelike. This jug is in excellent condition with bright red, white and green and gilt touches in the form of the pup's gold collar and locket. This item came solo from a large estate collection of Staffordshire pieces in Los Angeles. The spaniel was on his own and is looking for a friend, [possibly] or he can go it alone. The mark is worn away from the bottom of the piece. This antique Staffordshire jug dates from around 1860. The spaniel has the compulsory Tricorn Hat, so popular during the 18th century. He is hopeful, as he sits up in the begging position for attention, but a tasty morsel would be even better. This fine fellow's condition is quite good without chips or cracks. It measures 10 inches tall and 5.5 inches deep and wide.
