A pair of carved gilded wood Dogs of Fo, 19th century, each with a ribbon in its mouth resting on its haunches, one with its paw on a pup, the other on a ball, the gilding on a red lacquer ground, height 21 cm, width 17 cm. CONDITION REPORT: Right hand side dog - there is a fine but large slither missing beneath its tail. There is a fingernail size scuff on its tail and an older thumbnail scuff on the front of its tail. There is a crack across the middle of the base but this does not run all the way across. There are two drill holes in the base (most likely for securing it). The gilding is rubbed throughout to reveal a red lacquered ground. There is an old scuff to the rear left hand corner of the base, but nothing too detrimental. Looking at the rear of the dog, the patination to its left hand side is a lot lighter than the remainder. This measures approximately 4 cm across x 12.5 cm high. The left side dog - there are scuff marks to the tail revealing the natural wood. There is a large split approximately 13 cm long on the rear of the tail. There are three drill holes in the base but only two show through the surface. The gilding is rubbed throughout to reveal the red lacquer ground, this may be deliberately done for decorative purposes. There is a fine 6 cm split to the left side haunch just beneath the tail. There s also a small fingernail size patch rubbed to the heel of its rear leg. Having given the list of faults, these still remain a rather decorative pair of dogs.

The front right hand leg left hand corner block is an old but later replacement. There is no evidence of any woodworm.
