Our collectible line is one of our most popular for unique gift giving. Our lines include classic reproduction English Staffordshire dog figurines, folk wall art manufactured in the likeness of the original piece of art, and collectible plates. We take great pride in selecting the products that you are viewing on our web site. Many of these collectible pieces are favorites of our employees and gift store customers. For many years, we have sold Staffordshire dog, cat, and other interesting and unique figurines in our gift shop. We strive to carry only the best quality Staffordshire "Ware" that is made in England. These are world renowned as timeless classics and are sought after by collectors, designers, and antique dealers to decorate the most distinguished environments. Our classic lines are made in the manner of many years ago in Stoke-on-Trent, England, the heart of the English Potteries and the home of authentic Staffordshire figurines. The traditional, ceramic, English Staffordshire dog and other figurines continue to be manufactured in the same area and are made from original antique molds. Our dog pottery and figurines are painted with artistic methods that have been used throughout the centuries and reflect a form of art of that period. The spirit and style of the finest 18th and 19th century craftsmanship are continued with the production of these figurines. Our reproductions are from original English molds that were used many years ago by the potters. Each piece is hallmarked under the base with the factory name and location certifying authenticity. The Staffordshire dog is very collectible to figurine lovers today for personal collecting and gift giving. These pieces measure 3 inches to 13 inches plus in height. In addition to our spaniels, cats, and hounds, we have at times unusual and rare reproduction pieces. These are incredibly elegant and are perfect gifts for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, and special occasions such as graduations and other special recognitions for any member in the family. Many of our unique products are collected personally by figurine lovers. Staffordshire dog figurines are traditionally painted in black and cream or red and cream. We have introduced the highly trendy green. Most of the dog pottery is sold in pairs and mirror image each another. Dogs in this likeness used to sit in every parlor or mantel in the last century and previous. Use them on your mantel, use them for bookends, or use to decorate bookcases and secretaries.
