This charming antique brass toned figural lock takes the form of a small dog wearing a collar and scarf, cleverly concealing a working puzzle mechanism.Likely originating from India or Southeast Asia in the early 20th century, the curved tail acts as a functional lever once the lock is disengaged. The lock is likely cast in solid brass and retains a warm, aged patina consistent with its age and use.The two included keys feature notched edges that correspond precisely to the internal mechanism, and the lock is fully functional. Compact and collectible, this lock is both a decorative object and an example of old-world mechanical ingenuity.A unique find for collectors of antique locks, brass figural objects, or early security devices.Ships with both original keys. Vintage condition as pictured. Listing is for described items only. Dimensions approximately: 2"L, .5"W, 1.5"H dog. Box S12
