[QUOTE="KylieS, post: 9559870, member: 22292"]Hello all, just got this doggie in an auction lot in France. I know less than nothing about figurines of this kind, and it basically cost me nothing as I wanted the other pieces in the lot, so I was going to dispose of it cheaply. However a quick image search matches to a Royal Copenhagen husky from late 19th C and the prices asked seem...surprising to me. This one is not marked for Royal Copenhagen and my feeling is that the quality of the painting is not to that standard. But I can't help wondering what I have? The mark is not a match for Capodimonte (sp?) but could be for one of several German manufacturers. Or a recent Chinese production. Anyone have any thoughts for me? Honestly what I don't know about these figurines could fill a warehouse :arghh::facepalm: Thanks for looking!
