AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Late German porcelain figurine – Rustic genre scene with fruit baskets.



Charming porcelain figurine depicting a rustic genre scene of a seated young woman and a standing male figure carrying fruit baskets. The composition reflects everyday rural life, a popular theme in European porcelain production.

The figures are finely modelled with expressive facial features and carefully detailed clothing. Hand-painted polychrome enamels highlight the garments, floral motifs and fruit baskets, with light gilt accents on the base. The scene shows good balance and narrative detail, typical of German decorative porcelain from this period.

The underside bears a blue underglaze crowned mark, consistent with Sitzendorf porcelain of the 20th century.
