Antique bronze on marble Irish setter paperweight

Antiques : Paperweight : Bronze

 

This adorable paperweight probably dates from the early 19th century. It would look great on an antique desk …. to prevent love letters from flying away! It is beautifully made and the very realistic bronze Irish setter curled up on the oval marble plinth is to die for! It has a nice weight of 790 g and measures 5½" x 3¾" (14 x 9½ cm) and 2" (5 cm) high. It is in very good vintage condition except for a chip at the back bottom of the marble (see picture). It will ship Priority registered airmail for $24 in the countries neighboring Switzerland and $32 anywhere else in the world. A charming object of the past for all dog lovers!
