The form is the conceit: the dog sits ready on your worktable, scissors always at hand. Pieces like this were produced by Austrian, English, and French workshops in the decades around 1900, made for the well-appointed sewing table or dressing room. No maker's mark, which is typical for the category. The scissors appear original to the piece based on consistent patina and fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Type | Figural scissor holder\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Material | Cast bronze, cold-painted\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Subject | Hound dog holding scissors\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Origin | Continental European or English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Age | Circa 1880 to 1910\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Dog Size | 2 in H x 3.5 in W x 1.5 in D\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Scissors | Iron or steel, 3 in length, appear original\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Marks | None\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[condition]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe bronze retains its original cold-painted surface in dark brown with warm red-brown undertones showing through. Paint loss is significant and distributed across the body, consistent with age and handling rather than damage. The casting is sound with no cracks or repairs visible. The collar detail and facial modeling remain legible despite surface wear. The scissors show consistent oxidation with the dog and fit the mouth naturally. Overall honest antique condition, unrestored.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Austyn Marie Design","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51433577808150,"sku":"AMD-03161","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/4623\/5926\/files\/June_Enland_2026-3115.jpg?v=1781647380","url":"https:\/\/austynmariedesign.com\/products\/antique-bronze-hound-scissor-holder-with-original-scissors-ca-1900","provider":"Austyn Marie Design","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
