Produced during the 1960s by the renowned ZPS Ćmielów porcelain factory, this piece exemplifies the "New Look" style that defined Polish decorative arts of the era.

The sculpture depicts a Fox Terrier, distilled to its essential form through a sophisticated process of stylization. Naruszewicz abandoned realistic detail in favor of a fluid, minimalist silhouette with smooth, uninterrupted lines. The dog's alert posture is captured with dynamic and elegant simplicity.

Made of high-quality white porcelain, the figurine features delicate airbrushed coloring in a soft terracotta-brown hue. This subtle decoration highlights the head, ears, back, and tail, adding definition to the abstract form without sacrificing its lightness. The piece is finished with a high-gloss glaze that reflects light and emphasizes its sculptural contours. It retains the original factory markings from Ćmielów. This piece has an attribution mark,
