the sculpture is distinguished by the striking contrast between its two sides. On one side, the slender dog, with its long, drooping ears and recognisable anatomy, is rendered in fine detail. The opposite side features a rough, almost abstract treatment, with even one of the legs reduced to a simple metal rod.
the irregular texture, expressive finish and deep bronze-coloured patina give the piece a distinctive artistic character.
a small yet characterful work of art, beautifully suited as a standalone decorative object in both classic and contemporary interiors.
beautiful vintage condition with minor signs of wear and a natural patina. Signed c.r. On the underside. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
