LARGE ANTIQUE GERMAN PORCELAIN SCULPTURE STATUE - 22 " DIANA THE HUNTRESS - SIGNED
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:478857 |
I AM OFFERING A FANTASTIC 19TH CENTURY PORCELAIN SCULPTURE OR DIANA THE HUNTRESS. IT STANDS AN IMPRESSIVE 22", AND IS FINELY PAINTED. I WAS NOT ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE MANUFACTURER'S HALLMARK, BUT THE LEVEL OF DETAIL THROUGHOUT LEANS TO A HIGH-END MAKER. LIKELY GERMAN OR AUSTRIAN. AN ANIMAL PELT IS WRAPPED AROUND HER TORSO, AND SHE IS WEARING A TIARA OF GOLD. SHE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION IN CONSIDERATION OF AGE, BUT NOT PERFECT. SHE HAS 2 SMALL LOSSES-... 1 TO HER HEAD WRAPPING [SHOWN IN PHOTO #8], AND BODICE WRAPPING [PHOTO #9]. ALSO A SINGLE DIMINUTIVE FLAKE TO THE BASE OF THE PEDESTAL/ PLINTH [PHOTO #10]. VERY LIGHT PAINT RUBBING TO SEVERAL FINGERS OF ONE HAND. ALL ARE VERY MINOR, AND DO NOT DETRACT FROM THE EYE APPEAL OF THE SCULPTURE IN ANY WAY. SCULPTURES OF THIS SCALE ARE QUITE HARD TO COME BY, AND IF BY A COMPANY COMMENSURATE TO MEISSEN OR ROYAL DUX, IT IS WORTH WELL INTO 4-FIGURES.
THANKS!
