Description: An adorable pair of Cocker Spaniel book ends from the mid-1900s. Who doesn't need two puppy-eyed pooches to prop up their books?! You can almost hear them whining for attention and how could you say no to them? Although these are not signed in any way, we can deduce that these were made in Japan due to the production, materials and cold paint (painted after firing). These were never filled with sand and still have their bottom plugs. Should you wish to use these as bookends as intended, you will need to fill them with sand. I have never removed the bottom caps and cannot guarantee their strength. CAUTION: Cold painted items do shed their paint easily - best to clean with a dry cloth. I suspect this is what happened where there are smalls spots of paint loss as seen in the photos. Please note paint loss, as mentioned, and one small chip on the back - see photos. SEE PHOTOS FOR FULL DESCRIPTION AND CONDITION. PLEASE READ: I'm just a girl who loves everything vintage! There are so many great items out there that might be 100+ years old but still in excellent, usable condition. I see what I do as helping an item that I stumble upon find a new, forever home. Between cleaning out old items from around my grandma's house and my own hunting, you never know what you'll find in my store. That's what makes my store so much fun! Most items I sell will be sold as I found them, I prefer to leave cleaning methods to the purchaser. Keep in mind that all of my items are previously owned, sometimes by many owners over decades of time, and will show signs of wear. I strive to be transparent and will mention any significant defects or wear that I see including close up photos of noticeable wear. ALL ITEMS ARE SOLD AS IS, no refunds or returns unless otherwise stated.ALL USED ELECTRICAL ITEMS are not guaranteed to function; no warranty is included either express or implied. Purchase at your own risk.
