TOSCA – House of Icart by The Franklin Mint | Hand-Painted Porcelain Figurine No. 1782 A striking Art Deco tribute, hand-painted and individually numbered Presented by The Franklin Mint under license from the Succession Icart-Paris (ARS, New York), this graceful figurine reimagines the celebrated 1924 etching "Gothic La Tosca" by the legendary French Art Deco master Louis Icart — one of the most sought-after names in early 20th-century decorative art. Why this piece stands out: Sculptural drama — A flowing porcelain gown cascades into a dramatic train, while the figure cradles an intricately hand-modeled bouquet of pink roses, each petal individually shaped and painted. True hand-painted porcelain — Every detail, from the soft blush tones of the roses to the subtle shading of the gown's folds, was finished entirely by hand — not transfer-printed. Individually numbered edition — This example is numbered No. 1782, marked on the base alongside the official House of Icart backstamp, confirming its place within the limited series. Impressive presence — Standing 34 cm tall on an elegant black oval plinth, this is a substantial statement piece, not a small collectible trinket — designed to command attention on a shelf, mantel, or display cabinet. Documented origin — Crafted in Malaysia, 1997, under Franklin Mint's renowned quality-controlled porcelain production. Timeless Art Deco silhouette — The cloche hat, draped bias-cut gown, and pearl sash echo the glamour of 1920s Paris, making this a striking addition to any Art Deco or figurative porcelain collection.
