Beswick - Sculpture, Staffordshire Revival - 21 cm - Earthenware

A timeless English icon: these numbered Staffordshire dogs embody loyalty, protection, and domestic elegance in their most classic form.

This set is made of glazed earthenware and forms a classic pendant pair, traditionally intended for placement on the mantelpiece. The figures are equipped with the original model/serial number 1378-5.

The expressive faces, hand-painted eyes, flowing coat texture, and refined gold accents (collar, bell, and decorative motif) give these dogs a warm and characterful appearance.

Staffordshire dogs are deeply embedded in English home culture and symbolize loyalty, vigilance, and protection of the house. As a pendant pair, they also represent connectedness, balance, and harmony.
