Vintage Continental Terracotta Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Dog Figurines

Expressive pair of vintage, heavy-set ceramic Cavalier King Charles Spaniel dog figurines. Crafted from a substantial, heavy earthenware clay body—likely terracotta— and finished in a brilliant, high-gloss majolica-style glaze featuring a rich palette of warm caramel, cream, and deep chestnut brown. The unglazed, rustic bases reveal the warm, earthy texture of the clay and bear hand-incised mold numbers (7 and 8), pointing to their artisan heritage. Set of two dogs Crouching dog: 8.5" H × 13" L × 6" D Rearing dog: 11" H × 12.5" L × 6.5" D Unmarked; likely Italy or Portugal sometime between 1950 and 1970 Excellent vintage condition with beautiful glaze luster, no chips or cracks
