Today we are happy to offer for sale a rare and truly wonderful antique Roullet & Decamps papier mache bulldog! Roullet & Decamps was a world-renowned French toy manufacturing company operating in the 19th and 20th centuries, which specialized in automata and papier mache. Founded in 1865 by Jean Roullet, the firm took the name Roullet-Decamps in 1889, 10 years after the marriage of the daughter of Jean Roullet to Ernest Decamps, a mechanical engineer by trade. The firm ceased operations in 1995. Collections of their wares are on exhibit to the public in two French museums in Falaise, Calvados and Souillac, Lot. This precious late 19th century toy dog is intricately and expertly crafted and detailed. The piece is made of papier mache, with a nicely shaped body showing molded ribs and with a brushed on flocked velvet "fur" finish. The dog features a sweet, life-like "nodding" face with black spotted ears, celluloid/ceramic painted eyes, and pricked ears. The doggie wears an original bristle and salmon-painted leather collar. Dog presents beautifully and is in very good antique, as-found condition, with surface wear/discoloration and patina commensurate with age and type of use. There are minor areas of loss to "fur" painted finish. The bobble-head mechanism is slightly off-balance. This is truly a great opportunity to own a rare and amazing French papier mache toy! This adorable bulldog will make an outstanding addition to any antique and vintage toy collection. Fresh to the market from a Rhode Island estate!
Dimensions: approx. 17" in depth, 13" in height, 6-1/2" in width
