Deeply moulded fur detail covers the body, chest and tail, while graduated shades of reddish brown, chestnut and dark brown give the coat depth and definition.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIts glossy black nose, dark painted eyes and carefully shaded facial features create an expressive and dignified appearance. The substantial size makes this an attractive display ornament for a cabinet, mantelpiece, shelf or country-style interior.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nNo original Coopercraft label or printed factory mark remains on the underside of this example. However, exact matching figures are consistently identified as Coopercraft Chow Chows and recorded at approximately 18–20 cm in size.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nA lovely collectable for a Chow Chow owner, dog lover or collector of vintage British animal ceramics.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nItem Details\u003cbr\u003e\nMaker: Attributed to Coopercraft\u003cbr\u003e\nCollection\/Pattern: Chow Chow dog\u003cbr\u003e\nItem: Standing ceramic dog figurine\u003cbr\u003e\nMaterial: Glazed ceramic or earthenware\u003cbr\u003e\nMain colours: Reddish brown, chestnut, dark brown and black\u003cbr\u003e\nDecoration: Hand-finished shaded coat with deeply moulded fur, painted eyes and glossy black nose\u003cbr\u003e\nBreed: Chow Chow\u003cbr\u003e\nPose: Standing with head raised and curled tail carried over the back\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate production period: Likely late 20th century\u003cbr\u003e\nBackstamp: No surviving printed backstamp or maker’s label visible\u003cbr\u003e\nModel or shape number: No confirmed model number identified\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate measurements: Approximately 18 cm high and 20 cm long, based on matching examples and photographed scale\u003cbr\u003e\nConstruction: Hollow slip-cast ceramic with openings beneath the feet\u003cbr\u003e\nCountry of manufacture: Likely England, based on Coopercraft attribution\u003cbr\u003e\nOriginal box: Not included\u003cbr\u003e\nQuantity: One figurine\u003cbr\u003e\nCondition\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe figurine appears to remain in good vintage display condition, retaining a glossy finish, detailed moulded coat and clearly painted facial features. No chips, cracks or repairs are visible in the supplied photographs. There are light surface marks, small glaze and paint variations and minor signs of handling consistent with age. The unglazed foot rims show some contact and shelf wear, while the underside has minor production marks and light residue. Reflections across the glossy brown glaze make very fine scratches difficult to assess fully. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the description and show the exact figurine that will be received.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMore Vintage and Collectable Ceramics\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nI have more vintage dog ornaments, animal ceramics and collectable decorative pieces available in my shop.
