The attentive spaniel is rendered with a textured coat and carefully painted, inquisitive eyes, while a red collar adds a warm accent against the muted tones of the dog's coat. Its late 19th century origins and original painted surface give it an authentic, time-worn presence.

Crafted from cast iron and finished in its original paint, the piece is as functional as it is decorative, holding doors open with dependable weight while doubling as a charming accent for a shelf or mantel. Place it beside a fireplace, by a favorite door, or on a bookcase to add a touch of whimsy to traditional, cottage, or eclectic rooms. Dog lovers and collectors of canine decor will appreciate its lifelike detail and enduring everyday utility.

Measuring 10.75 inches wide, 4.5 inches deep, and 6.75 inches high, the doorstop is a substantial yet manageable size. Condition is good, with the original painted finish showing age-appropriate wear, including noticeable paint loss on the raised areas and edges consistent with use. The piece is structurally sound, with no visible cracks or repairs, and ready to be displayed or put to work. See less
