VINTAGE MID CENTURY ITALIAN CERAMIC ART POTTERY DOG MONEY BOX DACHSHUND BITOSSI?:
$121.58
A Rare Vintage Mid-Century Italian Ceramic \'Dachshund\' / Sausage Dog Money Box
A wonderful and fun piece of mid-century Italian ceramic design. This relatively large money box, fashioned as a \'long and low\' Dachshund dog, with drawn snout, triangular ears and short legs.
All over dark, satin finish with high-gloss geometric design in cream, blue and red coloured glazes. The design is delineated by sgraffito / scratching in, revealing the white earthenware body.
This is an absolutely charming piece and I\'ve not seen another Italian duchshund quite like it. In the style of those more regularly seen dogs by Bitossi.....but somehow I think this is better and more unusual.
The condition is poor (see below) and so this is being sold for improvement / restoration, but it\'s still a great and adorable decorative item.
Condition:
With extensive faults. The head has been off at the neck and has been old glued back on (leaving a gap). Needs to be dissolved and reglued cleanly. The rear left back leg is missing. The tail has been broken and reassembled / glued back into place (amateur) and again, this could be carefully taken apart and properly restored. Minor surface marks around the dogs muzzle.
Dimensions:47 cms long x 18 cms high to the tip of the tail.
Delivery:
All items are packed with care, to a high standard and sent via tracked and signed for style=\"margin: 0px; line-height: normal;\">Recent response:
