Expensive ones in porcelain. But as the19th century progressed and their popularity increased they were generally made in pottery for the cheaper mass market. They often reflected the culture of the time, notorious characters, events in history, the fashion or fashionable people etc. Some age related crazing and wear to paint. A few minor cracks.
