Description from the seller

Charming decorative sculpture depicting a reclining baby, made of ceramic or a similar composite material and hand-painted. The figure features a delicately modelled face with a serene expression, blue eyes and blond hair, dressed in a light-coloured garment with blue detailing, characteristic of decorative productions from the early to mid-20th century.

The modelling shows careful attention to infant proportions and volume, conveying a sense of naturalism and tenderness. This makes it an appealing piece for collectors of figurative sculpture, vintage décor, or objects related to childhood iconography.

The base is smooth and unmarked, consistent with European decorative production. The piece shows signs of age and use, including minor surface wear and small losses to the paint, which do not detract from its decorative appeal and instead enhance its authenticity.

A delicate and expressive piece, ideal for collectors or as a decorative object in a classic or nostalgic interior

Height: 15cm
Dimension: 29x12cm
