Omersa (1927 - 1985) not only made impressive craftsmanship, but above all also attractive, decorative leather animals - which were initially only sold by the British department store Liberty. Later also by the American company Abercrombie & Fitch, until the 1980s. This model was designed in the 1960s and later executed, probably in the 1970s. Omersa has designed and manufactured a selection of different animals - in different sizes. Dimensions approx. Height 44 cm - 17.32 in, Depth approx. 39 cm - 15.35 in, Width 40 cm - 15.75 in. Good condition with wonderful patina. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
from
