This is a large... heavy... glass Bull Dog Door Stop. This “gentle giant” sets just a whisker over 6 inches tall... a bit over 4 inches wide... and about 6 and ½ inches from front to back. There’s about six pounds of glass here. The body glass is a medium shade of Amethyst... not as dark as Black Amethyst... but still dark enough to be a great candidate for this luxurious “Peacock” Carnival Glass finish. Collectors often refer to this deep Amethyst glass color as “Royal Plum” glass. The addition of the Carnival finish seems rippling rainbows of unbelievable colors across the surface of the glass. With any change in lighting or viewing position the colors seem to “flow” across the surface of this handsome fellow... in an eye teasing and mind boggling display... and adding even more excitement to an already super exciting piece. This “puppy” has hand applied... brown glass eyes... with black pupils... and a close examination show this “husky fellow” to be in excellent condition. I can’t find anything wrong that I might point out. The Westmoreland Glass Company produced these Bulldog Doorstops in various glass colors over the years... but I have no information as to when they first introduced it... or over what period of time they were made. Summitt Glass acquired the “molds” and periodically produced this Bulldog Doorstop from time
