This Staffordshire pottery chimney ornament, dating from around 1820, depicts a wedding scene. The central figures are a bride and groom, dressed in their finery, standing in front of a small, castle-like structure. To the left, a man stands with a book, likely a clergyman officiating the wedding. The base of the piece features a decorative inscription, "WEDDING", which further underscores the subject matter. These cheerful and charming ornaments were popular decorative elements for homes in the early 19th century.
