Sweet Old Czech Rampwalker Dog whittle man Gödde (Gödde Brothers)

Gödde (Gödde Brothers)

I love them as a pair and would use them as vases or perhaps as storage vessels for chopsticks or wooden spoons or whatnot

or one white rose

with a tightly fitting lid that takes a bit of pressure to open

made with whatever was around

Sweet Old Czech Rampwalker Dog whittle man Gödde (Gödde Brothers)I've had a number of these old Czech "ramp walkers" characters in the shop, and never grow tired of them. The name refers to the fact that if you place them on a surface at a slight incline, they will walk themselves down it, with significant speed! I've seen a few other dogs, which this one is meant to be, but never one in such great shape, with snout, twine tail, paper arms, and all the paint still well in tact. C. 1930s, and a great walker he is! 4
