<p>[QUOTE="mirana, post: 10006121, member: 79705"]Note how the texture of the "bone" (it's never bone lol) comes through the large "painted" areas instead of seeing brush strokes? Remember that pieces painted on ivory or porcelain have a distinct almost pointillism technique due to the somewhat slippery base. Those lips and detail on her dress standing out as actually painted are a big clue to decorative work because usually it's the eyes, lips, dress collar, short signature, and maybe a hair decoration that get painted on those.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
