These figures reflect the British admiration for pastoral and hunting scenes, often depicting deer in naturalistic poses.

Background of Staffordshire Spill Vases with Figures

Staffordshire spill vases with figures were a popular form of decorative pottery produced in England, mainly in the 19th century, especially during the Victorian era.

The vase portion often took the shape of a hollowed-out tree trunk.
