Dog with a pointed nose – (0031)
[0031]

Toggle carved from the gnarled root of a tree. The carver noticed the similarity with a dog and enhanced the impression with a few small cuts. The patina of this toggle is good and we assume that it has quite some age but it is always difficult to affix a precise date to an item like this. Most probably 19th century. Length 6.7 cm. Width 1.8 cm. Height 3 cm.
