Balancing Teeter Totter Dogs black pottery vase The wide lip and interiorI not sure what these little creatures, cast brass dogs I believe, once teeter tottered on, but I thought they were worthy of rescuing from a pile at the flea market, as they can certainly balance in all sorts of places, and they look pretty joyful doing so! 7 1 2" long; dogs are 1 1 2" tall.
