More muscular and compact than BriarWorks' "C51" Bulldog, this "C53" Bulldog features the vertical striated rustication technique of the workshop in a classic rendition. Crisp lines throughout define the piece, its sharp ridges gliding across the shank and meeting the curvature of the bowl at the heel. The transition is high and cheeking of the bowl prominent, with precise double beadlines crossing the lined rustication at the inflation of the waistline.
