Wessex House Antiques has been trading for over 30 years and has developed an enviable reputation for selling high quality genuine antiques at honest prices to buyers across the UK and internationally.
In 2005 I was invited to write the Shire Guide to Staffordshire Figures, recently reprinted, a signed copy of which will be included with the purchase of any Staffordshire or Prattware figure. Also available by special request from the author at £5.99, including postage.

Description
This handsome pair of Pekingese dogs were made by William Kent in one of the last factories producing genuine Staffordshire figures. They depict a pair of dogs standing on diamond shaped plinths wearing blue ribbon bows around their necks.
They have a Registered Number stamped on their bases which show that they were produced in 1909.
These are genuine Kent pieces which were later copied by other factories later in the century and which were not so well coloured and much lighter in weight.
We offer Free postage to Uk destinations. For overseas customers we use tracked air couriers for rapid delivery anywhere in the world at a flat rate of £50 (buyers to pay import duties if applicable).
All of our sold items are wrapped with the utmost care and attention to detail. Glass and ceramic items are double boxed for security and peace of mind.
We welcome any enquiries regarding the figures. Please message us and we will be delighted to help.

The dogs are in excellent condition. There is a firing crack to the base of one of the figures (see last photo) but this was caused in firing and not post production. Please inspect the photographs closely to assess the condition and quality of these genuine Kent pieces.
