Absolutely breathtaking piece of very fine handmade & handpainted  porcelain figurine of a Northern dog,designed by Hanne Schaffer in 1967,it measures  3 1/4 inches tall,each piece is handpainted with meticulous attention to details,bears the Augarten Beehive log on the bottom,mint in box condition,never displayed or used..

Now,the Austrain called it a Chow,not the Chinese Chow Chow,but what is a Chow dog?

It is one of those Eskimo dogs who live in cold weather and has thick fur ,but is it a Spitz, Samoyed or an Eskimo dog,lets hear it from the Ebay bidders! 

Augarten is better than Meissen,simple elegant uncluttered design and easier on your wallet..
