This is a unique marionette with a Rottweiler dog head. The head is made of a resin and has a slight crack in the back. The hands are human shaped and in one he holds a scepter with ribbons and bells on it. The costume the marionette is dressed in is very elaborate from, black velvet shoes with gold trim and bells, to satin leggings, Velvet pantaloons, a waist coat and a hat. He has a faux fur "tail", leading one to believe this marionette was made overseas as docked tails are the norm for Rottweilers in the U.S. The "hands" have some paint marks on them but the clothing is in very good condition. The Marionette is 29" tall and hangs 19" down from the crossbar the strings are attached to. Please see pictures for an accurate assessment of the condition.
