Hand-carved, Varnished Vintage Wooden Boxer Dog weaving with fish pattern and in very good condition

and in very good condition

Some wear to his hat and  the slide sticks just a tiny bit at the very top (I believe just due to the currently humidity) but with just a little finesse works great

And skillfully done

referring to the shape (493) and heigh of the vase (10 cm)

I'm not sure the age

Hand-carved, Varnished Vintage Wooden Boxer Dog weaving with fish pattern and in very good conditionI believe this guy is meant to be a boxer, and I would guess a specific one at that, with what appear to be the initials of his maker subtly carved into his belly. I have a hard time passing by a lovingly carved dog, or animal of any sort really, and really like the on the ready posture and watchful expression on this one. 4 1 2" l x 1 3 8" t x 5 1 8" t. Very good vintage condition, I might guess mid 20th century or so. There is a very thin black line
