A very rare Victorian Staffordshire figure group of a soldier and girl, he is standing holding a scroll in his right hand and his girls arm in his left hand, wearing a plumed hat,  tunic with epaulettes and trousers, the girl wearing a feathered hat, a full-length coat over her dress, all on a rococo shaped base with gilt decoration. They appear to be possibly dancing and could therefore represent a theatrical pair as opposed to military. The source for the figure has yet to be discovered.
