$40 USDPorcelain Seriously Annoyed Dog with "Bug" - Germany
Collectibles:German Porcelain Figurine:Dog With Fly
This is a nicely detailed porcelain figurine...a seated dog - mostly white with brown floppy ears, a brown tail and black around his eyes, muzzle and at the tip of his paws. A real-looking fly has landed just out of his reach on his left leg. He angrily frowns down at the bug, extending his pink tongue, trying in vain to get that fly! "Germany" is incised or stamped into the bottom of his belly along with a #7. Four mold numbers which I can't quite make out can also be found on the dog's ...

Porcelain:Decorative & Figurines:Bisque "Mer-girl" By Hertwig & Co, Germany, 1932
It's not unusual to find figural mermaids - those lovely ladies spoken about by sailors - supposedly luring ships onto the rocks. But this little beauty is a "Mergirl" - a little figure with a girl's body and a fish's tail instead of feet, blissfully riding a seahorse. She was made by Hertwig and Company in Germany, listed in their 1932 catalog. She is clearly marked "Germany" and also incised with the number "4280" - both to be found on the back side of the figure at the bottom of the seahorse ...

$175 USDA Little Scotch - Schafer & Vater Figural Porcelain Decanter/Bottle - Germany

Early in the 1900's, Schafer & Vater Pottery Company were prolific creating very detailed and colorful pottery pieces which are still very popular and collectible. Although they made various items such as match holders and strikers, pitchers, decorative figurines and more, I have always been drawn to their humorous bottles or liquor decanters. Many were made for export and were shipped out empty to be filled by the purchasers. This type of bottle is often described as a "Give-Away" because that ...
$32 USDPorcelain Dog Figurine - Scottish Terrier - Made in Germany
Collectibles:Scottish Terrier Porcelain Dog Figurine- Made In Germany

It is a good sized figurine measuring 6" from ear tip to tail tip and standing about 3 3/4" tall. He is beautifully detailed with large, sharply pricked ...
