The canine is further dressed with a silvered and gilt collar around the neck. The work of art is adorned with a silvered patinated finish, very realistic shape and details, and is set on a sturdy base. The Venetian dog sculpture is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, and could be used to decorate an entry way, or a study. A must have for any animal lover!
