Pair of Staffordshire pottery figures of a lion and lioness against bocage

Reference: 6966

Dated: c. 1820 Staffordshire

A very rare pair of Staffordshire pottery pearlware figures of a lion and lioness standing before an unusual and decorative shaped bocage. The lions are amusingly snarling at a comical looking snake which is peeking out of the branches of bocage.
The bases are very well coloured with blue scroll work on the front.

Dimensions: 8.00 inch high

Medium: English Staffordshire pottery pearlware bocage enamel colours

Current Condition Restoration to some bocage and one snake.

Provenance: Private English Collection.
