Collecting Staffordshire ceramic figures, a particularly English folk
art, has expanded from its origins to include much of the English
speaking world. This work, in two books, details and illustrates the
range and depth of figures made by the potters. Over 2,900 figures are
illustrated in the two books, virtually all in the brilliant color which
was imperative for the beauty and simplicity of the figures to be fully
appreciated. Many of these figures have never before been recorded. A
history of the figures, together with sources and relevant
bibliographical details, are included, along with a guide to current
prices. Victorian Staffordshire Figures 1835-1875, Book Two details Religious
and Temperance Figures; Hunters and Huntsmen; Shepherds, Gardeners,
Harvesters, and Pastoral Scenes; Other Pursuits, Pastimes, and
Occupations; Children with Animals; Dogs; Animals; Houses, Cottages, and
Castles; and Sport and Miscellaneous.
