About the Item
Featuring a Dog with Pups
Rare Swiss Black Forest Dog group. The group modelled as a smooth coat St. Bernard female with her three puppies. The group exceptionally carved with a fantastic patination featuring naturalistic details and each dog with original glass eyes. The larger dog fitted with a carved collar and rope tie which lays under the paws. We firmly attribute the group to renowned Black Forest wood carver Walter Mader due to the characteristics matching the Dog groups known to be carved by Mader. The Black Forest dog group dates to the late 19th century to the early 20th century circa 1900.
Notes Walter Mader and his son Heinrich of Brienz, Switzerland were best know for their life like dog carvings like the one above. Often Dog carvings such as this one were retailed by Retailed by Ed Binder & Co. For similar dog groups see page 78 of “Swiss Carvings The Art of The Black Forest”.

Located in Nuernberg, DE
A great looking hand carved original wooden Folk Art Dog head with glass eyes, wall decoration. A great piece for a suitable ambiance in a trophy room or the office of a Hunter or Woodsman. More than likely one of the Folk Art items made between 1860 and the late 1890s. In remarkably good as found condition with only a few small paint lost on the trophy plaque. Found at an estate sale in Wels, Austria. We think this will be a nice addition to your Collection of Black Forest items...
