Pottery figures have been made by the Staffordshire potters for many years. Perhaps the earliest was the Pew Group, made in the 1740s and now rare to find. Usually there will be two or three upright figures sitting on a high-backed settle seat. Often a woman will be sitting in the centre.. Staffordshire flatbacks are a unique pottery figurine type that became popular in the 19th century. These decorative items are characterized by their flat backs, which allow them to be easily displayed on mantels and shelves. Staffordshire flatbacks often depict various subjects, including animals, people, and scenes from literature or history.

Contestants in the latest episode of The Great Pottery Throw Down are being asked to make Staffordshire flatbacks. Episode three of what is the seventh season of the Channel 4 show airs at 7.45pm.. To ask a question, contact me at [email protected]. Remember, my expertise is earthenware figures of the 1780-1840 period. If your figure is later (most spaniels, flat back figures, and figures with a transfer-printed mark beneath) look elsewhere for guidance. Myrna Schkolne. FAIR USE NOTICE.
