It’s an icon of midcentury interior decor and makes a striking impression. The body is decorated with bright glossy finishes while the contrasting highlights of the hairy coat are rendered in a combination of iridescent and fat lava glazes. Measures: 23 cm high at the shoulder, and 31cm long nose to tail. The Otto factory in Rheinbach, Germany, was established by Otto Gerharz in 1964, following a decade of work as Production Director at Ruscha. The Otto factory is famed for new and innovative glazes (particularly fat lava and matte glazes) and was taken over by Otto's son in 1994. Excellent condition with no signs of any damage. The glazes have been well-applied and the feet are perfectly flat and stabile. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity

issues arising from misattribution less
