Greyhound Double Perfume Bottle

This is a very rare treat - a figural perfume bottle in the shape of a greyhound dog resting by a vase made by Chelsea in the mid 18th century. The piece is superb and quite rare. It is a double perfume instead of just a single one with the vase making up one and the dog the other. The greyhound is hand painted with black and brown spots, the vase has a superb floral arrangement painted on one side and a single flower on the other and the base has a flower on the front and back and a gold trim all around. The concave underside has another superb floral arrangement hand painted under it. The mounts are gold. The scent bottle is made of soft paste porcelain which is always so much nicer than hard paste. The piece is not marked which is normal. It is 2.625 inches tall, 2.25 inches wide and 1.125 inches deep. It is in decent condition with a short stable hairline that is hard to spot on the top of the vase and the dog's hear has been replaced with a nasty plastic one. The top stopper is normally a bird on a nest instead of jsut a gold stopper. I'll have to get that taken care of one of these days but for now here is a chance to ahve it much cheaper than a perfect example and fix it yourself :) Please email me for more information or other pictures.
