About the Item

This antique mechanical toy is unsigned, but presumed to have been made in Europe, possibly England or Austria in approximately 1880 and done in the period Victorian style. The toy is a very large mechanically articulated white cat, which would have movement in the tail, legs and face. The clock work mechanism has been over wound, so is currently not working, but we do have a key that will fit the mechanism, which we include. Given the size and complexity of this toy, it would have been very expensive and only afforded by the most affluent of the period.

Beautiful antique French pajama dog, French Loulou dog, real fur over paper mache! He has wonderful glass eyes, a paper mache body and soft fur. Beautiful facial expression! There is some wear due to age as the dog is over 100 years old!! The fur is still in reasonable condition for his age! Some hair loss on the ears, tip of the nose, paws and back of the tail. Still such a cute and decorative dog. These pajama dogs could be used to store children's pajamas in and were in the finest homes of the nobility and wealthy citizens. Charming antique accessory for antique French dolls...
