Great Old Black Dog Doorstop with Alligatoring Paint vegetables I'd guess he is German

I'd guess he is German or Dutch

And also the fact that the waiter looks to me very much like Vladimir Putin

I just adore the painted water-skiing woman on this vintage handkerchief box

Engraved with an R at the center of one side

I do think this painting

Great Old Black Dog Doorstop with Alligatoring Paint vegetables I'd guess he is GermanJust a great old folk art doorstop, with creamy white paint over black giving life to this shaggy dog, with a bright red nose to boot. Terrific alligatoring to the white paint, and three fat nails at the base holding the doorstop piece firmly in place. 7 7 8" t x 4 1 8" w x 4 7 8" d. Great, perfectly aged condition.
