Vintage rum carafe Newfoundland Screech, Newfoundland dog in majolica.

Beautiful large rum decanter, advertising, made of glazed ceramic, depicting a Newfoundland dog standing. Vintage from the 1950s-1960s. This model is known as an advertising bottle for the Canadian rum Newfoundland Screech, although this example no longer retains its original label or medallion. The dog features deeply shiny black fur worked in relief, with large red and white eyes and a pink tongue, with polychrome details hand-painted. The neck is discreetly designed at the top of the head. The original stopper is missing. The ceramic under the paws appears porous, so its use as a liquid container is not recommended. Approximately 28cm long, 24.5cm high, and 10cm deep. Very good overall condition, with a small touch-up of paint above the left eye and around the neck, with no notable cracks or chips. Weighs approximately 1.2kg.
