About the Item

Pair of Italian Hollywood Regency Hand-Painted Pottery Dalmatian Puppies, Signed Italy, mid-20th century A charming pair of hand-painted Italian pottery Dalmatian puppies, each modeled seated with soulful amber eyes and expressive spotted coats. Signed on the base Italy, these figures date to the mid-20th century and reflect the playful glamour of Hollywood Regency décor. Finely detailed with naturalistic spots, alert expressions, and glossy glaze, they capture the intelligence and personality of the Dalmatian breed. At 6 inches tall, the pair is perfectly sized for tabletop or bookshelf display. Rare as an intact pair, they make a delightful addition for collectors of Italian ceramics, dog enthusiasts, or Regency-inspired interiors. This charming pair of pottery Dalmatian puppies embodies the whimsical spirit of Hollywood Regency décor, where animal figures often served as both statement accents and playful companions within glamorous interiors. Each figure is hand-painted in a naturalistic black-and-white spotted coat with glossy glaze, their soulful amber eyes capturing the distinctive personality of the Dalmatian breed — lively, intelligent, and loyal. The slightly tilted heads and seated posture enhance their appeal, suggesting attentive pups awaiting affection. Techniques & Decoration: Slip-cast pottery forms, hand-finished to refine features such as ears, paws, and tails. Hand-painted enamel glazes for the iconic Dalmatian spots, applied in varied sizes to mimic the irregularity of true coats. Expressive facial detailing with individually painted eyes, emphasizing depth and warmth. Markings & Origin: Both are signed on the base “Italy,” confirming their origin in Italian pottery workshops known for animal figurines during the mid-century era. The Hollywood Regency market favored such imports for their combination of decorative flair and naturalistic modeling. Rarity & Collectability: Pairs of Dalmatian puppy figures are relatively uncommon, especially in matched size and pose. While single examples appear periodically, intact pairs survive less often, making this duo desirable to collectors of mid-century Italian ceramics, dog lovers, and Hollywood Regency enthusiasts alike. Their manageable scale (6 inches) allows versatile display — from bookshelves to consoles — while their lively presence adds both humor and elegance.
