Antique 1920s to 1930s French bulldog, presumably made from the GABLONZ glass factory. This Czechoslovakian glass, animal charm or figurine commonly referred to as a ‘cracker charm’ or Cracker Jack prize featuring a molded clear glass French bulldog with a metal collar.
It has its original metal collar, inset paste, gemstone eye, (I believe one is missing), per Google lens points to a Czechoslovakian export from the 1920s and 1930s. These were used as carnival prizes, pending machine, gumball, premiums, and crackerjack boxes.
No markings are visualized on the collar or the base, but we are also talking such tiny features. I’m not sure without a jewelers Eye piece that I could identify any branding.

Local pick up is always an option but if shipping is required, then Items will be protected, packaged and shipped via USPS Ground Advantage Shipping Service with tracking. (We apologize in advance for the cost of shipping. I tried in the beginning to save costs and ship via First Class Mail with stamps on some things but too many people 'claimed' to have never received the item and insisted on a refund of the full amount paid. A few bad apples spoil it for all...).

Most items are from Estate finds from relatives. Our 'retirement' job is to diminish some of the things in our home of 50 years (before the kids rent a dumpster !). Many generations before us have contributed to our collection and it's time to thin out what we have. That being said, these treasures are too good to throw away and likely not without value so we list them in hopes that someone else has a love for them and will provide a new home. They come from a smoke free but not pet free home. Thanks for looking!
