Stunning Staffordshire Ware

Imagine my surprise while strolling through a 150 year old mercantile building (in a tiny town of less than 300 people) to come across this classic piece of 19th century English Staffordshire ware. What an unexpected pleasure. This rather large statue is a rare and unique presentation piece to commemorate a wedding.
Absolutely charming, features the betrothed couple on horseback with the words Going To Marrey along the base. This would make a stunning cake topper and be the piece de resistance for a true Victorian wedding.  Would also be a thoughtful one-of-a-kind anniversary, engagement or wedding gift.
