You can't help but fall in love with this adorable glazed ceramic dog, a scottish terrier I think. It is stamped inside with a desvres france marking and the initials gf in a sun, which means according to my research that it would date from between 1905 and 1925 or even 1930, a period when the desvres factory was run by gabriel fourmaintraux. For a ceramic that is about a hundred years old, it is in very good condition! No cracks, no chips, just small chips on the lower edge (perhaps original) and on one ear and, unless it is also original, a small raised dot not covered by the glaze on the back and one on the other ear. It measures 14 cm in height at the ear, 10.5 cm in length, approximately 6 cm in width.
