19th Century Russet Staffordshire Dogs or Mantle Dogs - c. 1880s - a Pair

A stunning and classic pair of seated russet Staffordshire dogs that are ready to adorn your mantle or anywhere needing a whimsical touch. Each dog is hand painted. They both have gilt colored collars and black muzzles.

The pair of Staffordshire dogs on are in very good antique condition. However, there are some condition issues to note. Both dog's muzzles have some wear to the black coloring. The left dogs' collar has a good portion of the gilt rubbed off. The condition is consistent with the age.

The dogs measure 7 1/2" tall x 5" wide.
