A whimsical, heavy cast iron figurine modeled as a playfully exaggerated, elongated dachshund in a rustic dark brown finish. Given its compact 24cm length and low 8.5cm profile, this piece is designed primarily as a novelty desk paperweight or decorative shelf ornament rather than a floor doorstop (which typically requires a wedge or taller profile to catch a door). Its sand-cast texture and classic novelty silhouette evoke traditional mid-20th-century cast iron boot scrapers and animal figurines. Good overall condition. The cast iron exhibits an even, dark brown patina with expected sand-cast surface texture and minor, age-appropriate surface wear on the high points and paws, with no cracks or structural damage.
