"White Royal Poodle, Meissen, 19th Century"
For dog and poodle lovers: Lovely and rare 19th century Meissen porcelain statuette representing a white royal poodle, shaved and coiffed. Note the very high quality of the sculpture, particularly in the treatment of the coat. Marked with crossed swords in blue. The poodle originates from Germany and was first used as a hunting dog in the marshes. Its appearance, kindness and great intelligence contributed to making it one of the favorite dogs of the nobility.
