Small Alabaster Pekingese Dog Sculpture w/ Sulfide Eyes - 4¾" x 6¼"

A charming small sculpture of a Pekingese dog, finely carved in alabaster and dating from the early 20th century. This delicate piece is signed and numbered (20/75) by Tiburzio Veronese, attesting to its artistic quality and limited production. The softly modeled form captures the characteristic posture and flowing coat of the Pekingese with gentle naturalism. Particular attention is drawn to the expressive sulfide glass eyes, whose remarkable depth and luminosity give the figure a striking presence. The alabaster, with its subtle translucency, enhances the softness of the carving and lends a quiet luxury to the piece.

Presented in good condition overall, with minor wear consistent with age and slight discoloration and surface patina around the eyes, which does not detract from their depth or the sculpture’s charm and expressive quality.

A delightful and intimate decorative object, perfect for collectors of animalier sculpture or early 20th-century decorative arts, and an ideal gift for dog lovers or Pekingese owners.
