    Not matches, no rough surface. Might have been for a calendar.

    Cute little guy, he looks a bit like he might be chalkware. Any makers marks?

    How big? Could be for business cards, or a place card.

    $_57 (6).jpg Yes it is more like chalkware but the gap behind the dog isnt really deep enough to hold anything, its marked on the back with a number and made in england, looks a bit art deco, must be something missing meant to fit in the back

    Why not a table number holder?

    There's just a very shallow recess in the holder part not deep enough to hold a number card, thats why I cant work out what its for or what the thing is meant to be next to the dog, maybe a curtain or something
