This astonishingly lifelike puppy is one of seventeen Basset Hounds created by the master artisans of Piutrè Italy. The synthetic, soft-to-the-touch plush is true to life, in the characteristic smooth-and-short coat of the breed. The long ears are velvety in texture, with loose folds from top to bottom, just as with a real Basset Hound, and each piece is hand-trimmed and hand-finished for an exceptional degree of realism. The tag on this Basset Hound Puppy, individually signed by a member of the Angeli family, is your hallmark of the uncompromising artistry and craftsmanship that go into the making of each Piutrè animal.
