Measuring 14¾ inches high by 10 inches wide, this single figure offers strong sculptural presence while remaining versatile for mantel, shelf, or vignette styling. The flatback form was designed to sit flush against a wall, a defining characteristic of Staffordshire decorative pottery.

Well suited to traditional interiors, English country houses, libraries, or layered antique displays. See less
