Description

This comprehensive new reference focuses on the variety of animal figures produced in Staffordshire during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Characterized by a cottage industry quaintness, Staffordshire figures were known as "image toys" and "chimney ornaments" in their day.

Countless subjects were produced but the animal models comprise a Noah's Ark of some of the most charming and endearing figures.

Today, Staffordshire animals are among the bestselling and most widely collected antique ceramics.

Beautifully illustrated with over 400 color photographs, this book traces animal figure evolution through chapters on animals in art, British ceramics, Staffordshire potters and potteries, and production techniques and styles.

Informative captions provide descriptions, dates of manufacture, and current values.
