Vintage Terrier Door Stopper

Some houses had a dog made of iron that held the door open all summer — and a real one asleep right next to it, both of them part of the furniture.

This terrier is cast iron, hand-painted black and white, heavy enough to do the job and characterful enough that you'll want it in the room even when the door's shut. The kind of thing a kid named.

Vintage cast iron terrier door stopper. $82.

Each piece is vintage or antique and has lived a life before finding its way to Tallmadge Ave; natural signs of age, wear, patina, and imperfections are part of its character and are to be expected. All pieces are sold as-is, and any notable condition issues are described in the product listing. That said, if it arrives damaged or isn't as described, we'll refund you in full, including shipping — since each piece is one of a kind, we can't simply send a replacement. Otherwise, returns are accepted within 14 days of delivery. Questions any time at christine@tallmadgeave.com — we're a two-person shop, and we answer.
