Standing at an impressive 45 inches tall, this piece captures the elegant, lithe silhouette of the breed with a regal, upward-gazing expression.
Crafted in the tradition of Italian Majolica or Mid-Century Hollywood Regency ceramic animals, the hound features a crisp white glazed finish and a detailed buckled collar. It sits perched atop a vibrant, hand-painted cerulean blue pillow base, accented with sunny yellow trim and sculptural corner tassels.
The scale of this piece makes it a rare find—perfect for flanking a fireplace, grounding a grand foyer, or adding a touch of whimsical sophistication to a maximalist interior. See less
