The sculpture features an elongated body, expressive face with dramatic eyelashes, oversized green bow, curled tail, gold-painted claws, and raised heart details throughout. Pink, turquoise, yellow, red, black, and gold accents add to its playful folk-art character.

Its form, materials, construction, and decorative style closely resemble labeled Jeanne Valentine sculptures from the same collection. No maker’s label or identifying writing is present, so the attribution is based on design and provenance rather than a surviving label.

Good vintage condition with age-related surface wear, scuffs, finish variation, and minor paint loss. No significant structural damage is visible. The sculpture remains complete and displays well. Please review all photographs for condition.

Dimensions: 23" H × 10" W × 10" D. See less
