Antique Vintage Mohair Monkey Possibly Steiff Or Schuco
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:4001244 | Size: Small (6-14 in) |
Brand: Steiff |
Based on the quality and excellent workmanship, I am sensing this may be Steiff or Schuco. Please use your judgment.
I am uncertain as to how old this monkey is, but it definitely has very good age.
The monkey measures 8 inches high when sitting (20.3 cm).
It does have some damage. I believe both hands are missing. I’m not sure what the metal piece it is holding in its right hand is from. The right ear is missin...g as is the right eye. The left eye may actually be a replacement. Again I’m just not sure.
Most of the monkey is made of mohair, but the face is made of cloth. It has stain marks on it. The mouth and nose are sewn on.
There is a round object inside its chest, which I am sensing you could press and hear a noise. There is no noise now though.
The monkey weighs 3.7 ounces (106 g).
