Dachshund Sculpture

A precise and quietly charming study in sculptural form, this dachshund by John Richard captures the breed's signature elongated silhouette with remarkable fidelity — the low, long body rendered in metal, glass, and crystal with a jeweler's attention to material and light. At once object and ornament, it occupies its thirteen and a half inches of width with a confident, composed presence that rewards close inspection. It is the kind of piece that anchors a console or library shelf not through scale but through character — the rare decorative work that feels both considered and inevitable.
