Set of Six Glass Dog Musicians
This lot comprises a set of six glass dog musicians, each figure modelled as a seated or reclining white dog with brown markings. Each dog holds or sits beside a miniature instrument, including a guitar, a double bass, a clarinet, a saxophone and a brass-style horn, with one figure reclining and holding a slender blue rod. Accompanying the group is a small piece of sheet music decorated with red dots and blue lines. The instruments are rendered in amber and blue glass, with coloured detailing on the bodies and fingerboards. The lot is offered as a single group, and one piece is noted as being marked A F.
Condition and Collector Interest
The figures appear intact as photographed, with the instruments and sheet music present. Detailed condition has not been examined, so prospective buyers are advised to request further images or a condition report before bidding. The piece noted as marked A F may be of particular interest to collectors seeking identifiable makers’ marks within the set. As a complete group of six, the figures offer an appealing display of whimsical glass animal musicians for collectors of decorative glassware and novelty figurines.
