AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

very good porcelain dhl shipment
Estimated value of a piece like yours

Common German / Meissen-style copy: about $100– $150.

Good vintage Meissen-style pieces: about $200 – $400.

Authentic antique Meissen porcelain: often $500 – $800+ and sometimes more at auction.
Most likely value (from your photo only):
around $100 – $120 if it is an unmarked or common German porcelain figurine.
From the photo, this appears to be a European porcelain figurine of a shepherd/flute player with a dog, done in a Rococo pastoral

Based on styling alone (without seeing the base mark), here are the most likely possibilities:

Most Probable Origin

German porcelain factory

Possibly late 19th century to early 20th century (circa 1880–1920)

Why:

The glossy glaze and pastel coloring

The pastoral 18th-century costume theme (common in 19th-century revival pieces)

The modeling style of the face and dog

The applied floral decoration

The naturalistic base rather than highly ornate Rococo scrollwork

Factories that commonly made this style:

Sitzendorf (Germany)

Volkstedt (Germany)

Dresden workshops
