[QUOTE="StaceyFinds, post: 4553507, member: 78170"]I found this piece recently at my local Salvation Army for $6 (which I was super excited about). My question is, is this a legitimate Chelsea figurine (as the previous owner believed because of the label they placed on the bottom), or could it be a Samson copy? While researching Chelsea, I see a lot of warnings about Samson copies of different porcelain manufacturers (although still nice pieces), so I was wondering if anyone on here has knowledge enough to help me figure it out? Does anyone know when this piece may date to? It looks legitimate to me, but I am new to researching antique porcelain. I’m having a hard time finding this specific figurine with google image to know what to call her. It has the gold anchor on the base and is approximately 11.5” tall. Thank you for any help!
