An amazing yellowware Rockingham glaze dog figure
What is known as Rockingham pottery began in England and is characterized by its mottled brown surface. When English potterers began immigrating to America, they brought this distinctive glaze with them. Soon Rockingham pottery became the majority of the pottery manufactured in mid-nineteenth century America. Variety of wares have been made for household use as well as for decoration, like the animal figurines and statues.
This seated dog was meant to resemble the popular King Charles spaniels, and could've been used as a doorstop or for decor.
