Wanted - black & white whiskey dogs.

Post by Mr Mac »

Looking for a perfect condition, set of porcelain display, black & white scotch whiskey dogs.

I have a specific set in mind, but can’t remember the specifics!
Seen them about 3 years ago, individual dogs, very high quality, made by some English porcelain company.
I’ve been searching for a pic - and can’t narrow the search down enough.

Vaguely remember the set was about £120 on eBay.

If anyone has a set for sale, or could help me with any info about these, please let me know.

I'm thinking either naively decorated Staffordshire or some Gallé - the Gallé will still be "stylised" and being more "collected" more £'s..........

Gallé did dogs and cats. They were aimed as decorative for mantelpieces and hearths.

Don't know of any that were specifically created in connection with whisky, unless Black and White might have commissioned some specifically for marketing........

Thanks Jack, they are the right dogs, but the ones I’m thinking of are separates and came in individual boxes.

Thankfully I’m in no rush, so if anyone comes across a set, please let me know.
