Description from the seller

Magnificent white-glazed ceramic female bust, depicting a woman with eyes closed, wearing a veil or flowing hood that drapes gracefully over the shoulders and chest.

The style is:
- Clean and stylized
- Serene, almost meditative expression
- Soft and modern lines
- Glossy finish (smooth glaze)

The golden discs on the veil are a distinctive decorative element. They seem to have been applied after firing (gilding or gold lustre).

From the style and finish, this evokes:
- 1960s–1980s
- Late Art Deco / decorative modernist aesthetic
- European production (Italy, Spain or France or Portugal quite likely)

This type of bust was very popular as a decorative object in interiors of the 70s–80s.

Maximum height of about 40 cm with a width of approximately 20–25 cm.

In good condition. See the photos; they are an integral part of the description.

Fast and well-protected shipping with tracking worldwide.
