A Vintage Porcelain British Bulldog Figurine
This vintage porcelain figurine depicts a British bulldog lying down with its head resting on a cushion. The cushion is decorated in blue and red, and the bulldog wears a red bow tie. The modelling is moulded with clear detail to the bulldog’s heavy brow, jowls and folded front paws. The white glaze is applied across the figure and the cushion, with the blue and red decoration painted by hand to the cushion and bow tie. The piece is a compact example of the breed in a traditional pose, typical of small decorative porcelain figures of its type.
Condition and Signature
The figurine shows some surface dust and small marks to the underside, and the base carries incised marks that are consistent with the signature noted in the description. The glaze appears intact across the visible areas, and the painted decoration remains clear. Original decoration and marks are present, which may appeal to collectors of vintage British porcelain animal figures. The piece will suit a buyer seeking a small, characterful bulldog ornament with a documented maker’s mark on the base.
