The larger rectangular pocket can hold a watch, loose change, keys, cuff links, or small jewelry, while the shallower side tray gives you another place for everyday odds and ends. The long tail, raised head, painted black facial details, and warm brown and yellow glaze give it the cheerful novelty style associated with mid-century dresser accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/myreadingvintage.com\/collections\/vintage-home-decor\" title=\"ceramic dachshund dresser caddy\"\u003eceramic dachshund dresser caddy\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e dresser caddy, menswear valet, trinket holder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 1950s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e glazed ceramic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e brown, yellow, cream, and black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker and Mark:\u003c\/strong\u003e no visible maker's mark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern or Model:\u003c\/strong\u003e not confirmed from photos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-Century Modern novelty ceramic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 9 in at the highest point, 6 in wide, 6 in long.
