18th Century Staffordshire Blue and White Glazed Dog Whistle
A rare and utterly charming English Staffordshire blue and white glazed ceramic dog whistle. Showing the pooch standing alert with tail up and ears pricked. And it works, definitely gets my dog's attention. Circa 1790.
Wear consistent with age and use. Minor losses. There is a small old chip to back top of left ear, some loss of glaze to side of right ear and nose, various other minor losses to glaze. It seems to have been used for its purpose, and much loved.
