<p>[QUOTE=&quot;flilot, post: 315556, member: 6401&quot;]Hello all, first time poster here, so forgive any mistakes!</p><p><br /></p><p>I recently aquired a porcelain figurine of a girl, kneeling down next to a footstool, trying on jewellery from a small casket. It is very finely modelled, and the quality of the porcelain itself does suggest manufacture by one of the better quality figurine producers.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>However it is painted overglaze, almost in a crude fashion, quite thickly, though attention to detail has been paid to the hair and facial features. The paint is flaking off, as can be seen, maybe suggesting the &quot;blank&quot; figurine was purchased, and then painted at a later date, at art school or similar? </p><p><br /></p><p>There are no marks at all on the piece, impressed or printed (I&#039;ve had a very good look).&nbsp; The underneath of the base does remind me of the way earlier Royal Worcester figurines were made, with the unglazed base rim extending over the recessed base itself.&nbsp; Another thing to note is the main glaze on the figurine is a pure white, while underneath the base it is more of a creamy colour. </p><p><br /></p><p>Any help at all would be appreciated, I&#039;ve spent quite a while trying to research it, via Google and Google Images, as yet to no avail. Images provided below.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]104643[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]104644[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]104645[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]104646[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]104647[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]104648[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]104649[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
