AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Refined and elegant sculpture in the finest hand-painted porcelain, produced by the renowned German manufacturer Müller & Co. of Volkstedt-Rudolstadt (Thuringia, Germany), famous worldwide for excellence in artistic porcelain craftsmanship and lace.
The figure depicts a noblewoman of the Rococo/18th-century era, delicately posed on a decorated stool. The lady wears a sumptuous pink dress shaded in tones, enhanced by clusters of blue flowers and trims in pure gold on the sleeves, bodice, and skirt. Of particular value are the puffed sleeves and the neckline finished with the intricate Dresden Lace porcelain technique.
-Symbol in blue under enamel: It depicts a stylized crown above the letter "M" (or monogram MV for Müller Volkstedt).
-Red number ("047."): It is the serial/model number of the sculpture or the identifying code of the painter who hand-decorated it.

Excellent overall condition for its age. The paintwork and gilding remain bright. It is advised to carefully review the detailed photographs to verify the integrity of the delicate lace edges and the hands.
