Created by Royal Dux Bohemia circa 1940s, he has the remarkably lifelike character that makes the company’s animal figures so beloved. From his intent expression and softly folded ears to his outstretched tail and carefully modeled coat. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnd this boy is BIG.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasuring approximately 20½ inches long, he is unusually large for this Royal Dux subject. Most examples we encountered were considerably smaller. This is not a little porcelain dog destined to disappear on a crowded shelf—he is a substantial sculptural presence capable of anchoring a console, library table, mantel or gentleman’s study.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe beautifully modeled hunting scene captures the retriever in motion, stepping carefully across the naturalistic terrain with his prize. Warm caramel and cream glazes define his coat, while the pheasant’s deep blue-green wings provide a handsome contrast. Viewed from every angle, the detailed musculature, feathering, paws and sweeping tail give him vitality and movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe would be especially wonderful in the home of a sporting-dog enthusiast, hunter or anyone who has ever loved a loyal retriever.
