Pair of hand-painted polychrome porcelain figurines in antique Rococo style, depicting a woman feeding doves and a gardener with a watering can, each about 23 cm high, blue underglaze mark Triebner, Ens & Eckert (Volkstedt, Thuringe) dating 1877–1894, with old restorations and minor damages and worn gilt.
Description from the seller
A superb pair of polychrome hard-paste porcelain statuettes, finely modeled and entirely hand-painted, depicting a young woman feeding doves and a young gardener holding a watering can.
The two subjects rest on elegant Rococo-style bases richly embellished with gold. The clothing features delicately hand-painted decoration, characteristic of the finest productions from the Volkstedt manufactory at the end of the 19th century.
The blue underglaze mark corresponds to the Triebner, Ens & Eckert factory (Volkstedt, Thuringia) and allows dating this pair to between 1877 and 1894, the period during which this mark was used.
Dimensions:
* Height: about 23 cm each.
Condition:
The statuettes are sold in their current state, in accordance with the photographs.
Presence of ancient restorations and minor flaws, notably:
* hand restoration and at the neck area of the female figurine;
* small chips and restorations on certain relief elements (foliage, birds and decorative details);
* normal wear of the gilding and light signs of aging.
Please examine all photographs carefully, as they are an integral part of the description and the condition report.
