Large 14-inch cast iron kangaroo doorstop marked Sun Foundry 1867 on the foot. The piece is a reproduction inspired by antique Australian and British Commonwealth cast iron animal doorstops and decorative figures from the late 19th to early 20th century.
Kangaroo-form cast iron pieces are less common than the usual dog, cat, horse, or floral doorstops, giving this example strong display appeal. The Sun Foundry 1867 marking connects the design to the tradition of 19th-century decorative cast iron foundry work, though this piece is best described as a vintage-style decorative casting unless independently authenticated as an original period example.
The large upright form and solid weight make it suitable as a doorstop, floor display, lodge accent, or animal collection piece.
Marked Sun Foundry 1867. Age and origin not independently verified; please review photos of casting, paint, and foot marking.
