Offered here is a handsome sculpture of a hunting dog on point. The sculpture is of spelter or other metal, the dog finished with a bronze patina, the base in black. It makes a striking contrast. The dog is well modelled with nice detail. Possibly an old repair to the tip of the tail but I'm not sure. The base is 8 1/2" and the sculpture is just under 4".

This is a handsome dog with a very appealing face. I do not know what kind of dog it is. He is iron, well sculpted and, I believe, rather old. I will venture that he is late 19th century. The sculpture is 6 1/2" by 2 1/2" and he is approximately 3" high.

This is a very nice, vintage piece, probably dating to around 1920 or so. The dog is cast of white metal with a bronze patina, and it is very well cast with much nicer detail than the new ones I've seen. I love the regal pose. Approximately 5" long and about 2 1/2" high to the tip of his nose.

This is just the greatest! Wait till you see the close up of his face! He is old, and beginning to show it a bit with a few cracks here and there (see picture #3), but he's probably got another hundred years left in him. He's about 7" long and about 4" tall at the highest spot. Offered for sale as is.
