A pair of Staffordshire Poodle figurines, each measuring approximately 8 high x 3 x 4. These figures are made of classic Staffordshire earthenware and feature the distinctive "confetti" textured coat, commonly associated with Victorian-era craftsmanship. Also included is a pair of mid-20th century porcelain figurines depicting a praying boy and girl, each accompanied by a lamb. These smaller figurines measure about 4 high x 2 x 2 1/2 and showcase a "spaghetti" style porcelain technique, creating a wool-like texture on the lambs and children’s hair. The praying children and lambs suggest a sentimental theme of innocence and devotion. The Staffordshire pieces originated in England, while the praying figurines are linked to Japanese production.
