Denby?

Sweet Green & Inky Blue Small & Mini Byngo Dogs

c. 1920s/1930s

These gorgeous old Byngo dogs with the priceless expression would make a rare and welcome addition to anyone's collection, especially a pair in such fine condition as this.

They were purchased as a pair and have always lived together, and I can't bring myself to separate them at this stage in their lives!

Both are green with markings in a very dark inky blue.

The "big" dog on the left's 3.25"/8.2cm high. The adorable little pup on the right's just 2"/5.1cm tall! These "tinies" aren't seen that often and can command high prices.

As is often the case, these dogs aren't stamped or marked, but they're generally attributed to Denby.

Apart from light age-related crazing to the glaze of the larger piece (there's none on the smaller model), they're both in excellent condition, with no cracks, chips or restoration work. There are a couple of minor manufacturing flaws I should point out: two pin head sized spots of "crawling" on the larger dog's left cheek (this is where the glaze does not adhere to the clay, and can be caused by something as simple as a stray splash of an oily substance in the paint workshop - it's a very common problem with pieces like this, and more so with the self-coloured SylvaC animals). I thought the little one had a touch of rubbing to the paint on the tip of his nose, but this isn't the case, as it's been overglazed.

Thanks for Looking!
