This wonderful Cocker Spaniel is an old figurine from the early years of Mortens Studio.
The designer of this figurine, Oscar Morten, immigrated from Sweden to the U.S. and opened a gift ware studio in Chicago in 1931. Over the next two decades, he created over 300 popular dog and horse models. Composed of ceramic over a metal skeleton, these figurines, although beautiful and engaging, were prone to crazing and flaking, thus making it difficult, today, to find examples in perfect condition.
Half sitting/ half reclining with her head tilted slightly upwards, you can almost see her story in her eyes.
Measuring 2 1/2″ tall x 3″ long x 1 1/2″ wide, she is in great condition, with a small sprinkling tiny spots with the largest at the tip of her tail.
She has a matte finish which was more common in the earlier pieces.
She is an absolutely exquisite pup, one that would make a wonderful gift to any Cocker Spaniel lover, but we caution you that once you see her, she will be quite difficult to give away!
