MATCH-LESS PUG ( Antique Bisque Porcelain Pug Match Holder ): This pug is missing the matches (or toothpicks) from his basket, but it would look lovely filled with a bouquet of small flowers, or – more to my taste – jelly beans. This is a charming piece and not one that I have seen before. My guess is that he is German, made by the same porcelain company that makes the bisque Pug & Spitz pieces that I have. Both the pug and the basket are nicely molded and hand painted. Bisque porcelain has only the initial firing, giving it a soft appearing finish. Because they don’t have the harder, more durable glaze, many have dings and scratches. This one is in remarkably good shape.

Condition: Excellent.
Size: 4 3/4” high, 3 3/4” wide, 2 1/2” deep.
