Late 1800’s Black Forest Hand Carved Walnut, Wood Dog Sculpture. Highly Detailed measuring approximately 8.5″L x 6 1/2″H x 3 1/2W and weighing approximately 9.8 ounces. The sculpture is beautifully carved from the fur to the definition of the foot pads, toe nails and collar, this is just a magnificent piece with brown glass eyes and aged patina. It is very reminiscent of pieces by Walter Mader, who was a great Swiss wood carver in the late 1800’s to early 1900’s, but I have no paperwork to prove that it is his piece. He carved canines, exclusively. A great addition to any collection of fine Black Forest wood carvings. Very good pre-owned condition with a few small shallow age cracks to the under belly and under the chin if you view with magnification. Part of the front left paw has also been reattached, but it is difficult to see. My husband’s father and my father brought back many lovely pieces of jewelry, porcelain, clothing, perfumes, and household items to their new brides upon their return from Europe after WWII. Many of the items have gone to family, but there are still many items that need a home, and they are listed here. There are also other items, long held family treasures that also need to find new homes, as we have no room in ours for them. Many of them have been passed on from generation to generation over 100’s of years. We hope they find a home with you. I bought many gemstones, carvings, minerals, gold, and other fine items while in the jewelry industry. Please look at my other loose carvings and gems for design or collection.
