This is a Viking Basset Hound Dog paperweight or figurine. He is absolutely gorgeous. Viking "Bluenique" is really one of the best blues. This one is 4 inches tall and 2 3/4 inches across the base. There are no chips cracks or issues of any kind. Buy it with confidence. While you are here, check out my other Viking Glass pieces and figurines. Thank you for looking. 🙂
