Vintage-style cast iron dog doorstop in a playful reclining pose, with upright ears, wrinkled face detail, stretched body, and rear legs extended behind. The form appears closest to a French Bulldog or Boston Terrier-style dog, with a short muzzle and expressive face.
Cast iron dog doorstops became popular decorative household objects in the early to mid-20th century, especially during the 1920s–1940s, when animal-form doorstops were used in entryways, porches, parlors, and kitchens. This example has the same old painted-iron / primitive decorative look and works well as a functional doorstop, shelf display, dog collection piece, or farmhouse accent.
