This vintage porcelain pair of Dachshunds was made in Grafenthal, Germany in the 1950’s.
Carl Scheidig, today known both as a modeller of wonderful porcelain figurines, and a highly successful businessman, studied what was being produced by his competitors, and produced what was missing. As dealers visited all their regular porcelain manufacturers, looking for something new, they almost always ended up at Scheidig’s, and buying the unique and different pieces from him. He began his factory wit 3 employees in the early 1900’s and 7 years later, he was employing 160.
This fabulous study is of two Dachshunds one seated and the other begging. The sweet contentment and playfulness of these two canine buddies, is captured perfectly in this wonderful vintage porcelain figurine.
This vintage porcelain pair of Dachshunds measures 4″ tall x 4 1/2″ long x 2 1/4″ wide, and it is in excellent condition.
