Staffordshire Spaniel Dog 13" Tall
Victorian era figurine circa 1850s is a charming sort of fellow. Unfortunately, his mate perished in a grisly Antique Show incident some years back and he's never quite recovered. (I am loathe to discuss the unsavory particulars but let's just say it involved a horrid little child and his sleep-walking mother). This left side dog is the type with the front legs in one piece....very naive style. He was adorned in pink and gold lustre at one time, but with many years under his belt has lost most of this, only the vestiges remain....he has overall craquelling and stands a proud 13". He has no chips nor cracks. He has a chain molded into his front and a collar with a padlock. He is a very quiet and well mannered fellow and just needs a good home. You must have stable employment and we would prefer to make a house visit before we adopt him out...., or not! We'll include shipping for this pooch.
