Antique Staffordshire Robin Hood Figural Group Ceramic Vase Sculpture

We all know the classic tale of Robin Hood and his Merry Men, but maybe never pictured him as a Staffordshire figure! At first glance, these two figures may appear to be French chefs on a quest for ingredients. Upon closer inspection, we see a faint "Robinhood" inscription on the base marked with gilt gold. The tree behind the figures is a vase and the most interesting way to display flowers!

Collector's Notes:

Condition: Very Good

Expected wear for age. Gilt gold has rubbed off in areas over time.

Three visible cracks in form that appear to be from firing, but structurally sound.

Circa 1850

Size: 9 1/2" width; 15" height; 3 1/2" depth; 1 1/2" vase opening depth; 2 1/2" vase opening width
