Description from the seller

RARE ART PORCELAIN STATUETTE - ART DECO STYLE - TENGRA MANUFACTURE (SPAIN)
Piece description:
Superb and rare collectible porcelain sculpture from the famous Spanish manufacturer TENGRA (Valencia), featuring a dancer draped in a large fan-shaped costume in the purest spirit of the Art Deco period.
The enamel work is of remarkable finesse, combining flat white fields, a magnificent glossy geometric decor with iridescent reflections (shades of bluish gray and pastel beige-pink) and rich hand-applied fine gold tracings.
The statuette rests on its original matte black wooden base.
Authenticity is guaranteed by the presence of the two original labels on the edge of the base: the black shield "Tengra - Hand Made" and the silver "Tengra" label in relief.
Origin: Valencia, Spain
Era: Late 20th century
Height: 35 cm (Very sought-after intermediate size)
Material: Glossy porcelain, fine gold gilding, wooden base
CONDITION: ABSOLUTELY IMPECCABLE
Exceptional object in a remarkably fresh state, ideal for demanding collectors.
No chips, no cracks, no crazing.
The dancer's hands and slender fingers are 100% intact.
The gilding and the iridescent glaze are perfectly bright, with no wear.
