This porcelain pug figurine was made in Germany at the beginning of the 20th century and represents the naturalistic craftsmanship characteristic of that era. The piece is crafted from fine, thin porcelain, hand-modeled and hand-painted—a warm creamy tone is nuanced with soft beige gradients on the body and head, skillfully creating the look of real fur. Accents of glossy black on the muzzle, inner ears, and curled tail provide visual contrast against the lustrous surface. The expressive orange-red eyes are outlined with dark paint, lending the face an intense, narrative quality. Around the pug’s neck sits a pale blue collar, detailed with two delicately painted gold-and-white bells.

The figurine echoes the spirit of the belle époque, when German porcelain makers excelled in lifelike representations, elevating realism to a mark of
