Description
If love collecting unusual and beautiful objects, you can understand why I had to have this!
A stunning little smoking pipe that looks very Art Deco (c1920’s-1940’s) in design. Made from a gorgeous red translucent Bakelite and with beautiful Art Deco lines and stylised dogs head.
I have never seen one like it and wish I could know more about its maker and origin, but it’s character and unique style is just gorgeous!
Measuring approximately 12cm from the tip of the dogs nose to the end of the mouthpiece. It’s in overall good condition but does look like it’s had a repair at some point where the dogs head meets the translucent pipe. There is also some damage to one paw. The painted eyes are in good condition with minor paint loss but there is a spot of discolouration to the side of the head that I can not work out if it’s paint loss or built up dirt. I haven’t tried to clean it for fear of damaging it or ruining its original vintage patina.
A lovely piece for the pipe or tobacciana collector! Also would make a great gift for a dog lover! Stunning!
