{"product_id":"victorian-staffordshire-figurine-late-19th-century","title":"Victorian Staffordshire Figurine (Late 19th Century)","description":"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003eA rare and authentic window into Victorian spirituality and folk art, this \"flatback\" figurine depicts the biblical scene of Daniel in the Lions' Den. Unlike later reproductions, this piece is a genuine late 19th-century original, as evidenced by the characteristic small vent hole on the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003eThe composition is quintessentially Staffordshire: Daniel sits with a stoic, hand-painted expression, flanked by two lions that appear more like faithful companions than predators—a charming example of the \"naive\" style of the era. The creamy white glaze is covered in a beautiful, dense network of crazing, a soulful patina that only a century of history can create. With its unpainted back, it was designed to stand as a silent guardian on a Victorian mantelpiece. Today, it remains a powerful piece of \"Everyday Poetry,\" perfect for adding a touch of narrative depth to a modern library or a curated shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTechnical Details \u0026amp; Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eEstimated Period:\u003c\/b\u003e Late 19th Century (c. 1870-1885).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/b\u003e Staffordshire, England.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Hand-painted Earthenware \/ Pottery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e Height 26 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/b\u003e Excellent antique condition.
