Antique Hubley cast iron doorstop depicting the highly collectible "Takeo Boy" figure seated on a cushion in traditional Japanese attire. This charming early 20th-century figural doorstop features a serene expression and hand-painted robe decorated with floral and foliate motifs. The figure is seated atop an integral cushion-form base and showcases the quality casting and decorative appeal that made Hubley Manufacturing Company one of America's premier producers of cast iron doorstops.

This example retains its original painted surface with attractive age-related patina throughout. Significant paint loss, craquelure, surface wear, and oxidation are present, contributing to its authentic antique character. The detailed robe decoration and facial features remain visible despite decades of use and display.

A desirable addition to collections of Hubley cast iron, antique doorstops, folk art, Americana, and Asian-inspired decorative objects.
