A black Scottish Terrier sits closely beside a cream, russet and black Wire Fox Terrier, both rendered in wonderfully dimensional relief with expressive faces and beautifully textured coats. The richly aged polychrome finish gives this example considerably more decorative presence than the monochromatic bronze-finished versions most often encountered. Substantial and beautifully timeworn, it is equally compelling as functional library décor, a small doorstop or a sculptural addition to a collected dog-themed interior. This listing is for one bookend.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCONDITION\u003cbr\u003eGood antique condition with authentic wear consistent with age and use, including paint loss, rubbed edges, surface abrasions, oxidation and areas of exposed cast iron, particularly along the base.
