Dog Figurine Taper Candle Holder

Updated September 15, 2026

Small decorative dog figurine candle holder, depicting a long-eared spaniel-type puppy holding a bright turquoise-blue boot or watering-can-shaped vessel. A cylindrical candle cup is incorporated into the back of the figurine. The dog is white/cream with hand-painted brown ears and markings, expressive painted eyes, and a brown nose. The molded surface has detailed fur texture. No visible maker's mark is shown. Appears to be molded ceramic, porcelain or a similar fired ceramic material, with a matte-to-satin painted finish. The underside is hollow with openings and retains an older candle-safety label. Dimensions are approximately 3"h x 3"w x 4"d. Fair pre-owned vintage condition with noticeable age/use wear. There is surface soiling and discoloration, particularly inside the rear candle cup, including dark wax/soot-like residue. The painted finish shows scattered rubbing, scratches, and areas of paint loss, especially on the brown ears/head and along raised details. The turquoise vessel has visible surface wear and what appears to be a fine hairline crack on its side. Minor edge wear and small marks are present throughout. The underside has additional discoloration/soiling and handwritten markings. No major missing pieces or large breaks are visible in the photos.
