Antique 19th century miniature Staffordshire dalmatian mother and puppy figurine
A beautiful late 19th century Victorian hand painted miniature Staffordshire figure depicting a charming dalmatian mother and puppy.

Flatbacks served as a visual chronicle of Victorian popular culture, current events, and local stories, often inspired by newspaper engravings from the Illustrated London News.
A striking decorative shelf or mantle display with plentiful amounts of character and charm.
