A charming pair of small vintage Staffordshire cats (right and left facing) on rich cobalt blue cushions with gold gilt highlights. Hand painted faces with sponged calico markings in brown, orange/ochre and black with gold accents, and wearing sweet blue bow tied collars.
A lovely gift for the cat lover on your list - mantel decor or perched on top of a stack of books.
These figurines were popular mantel decor in the Victorian era. These cats appear to date to the 1940's/1950's.
