Gillers Antiques Ltd has dated this German Porcelain Shepherdess Figure to the 19th Century.
The distinctive bright yellow skirt and rococo base are characteristic of German revivalist porcelain of this period. To the rear of the base is a blue underglaze anchor mark, imitating the Chelsea-Derby “gold anchor and D” mark. There is also an impressed circular mark to the underside, likely a standard mould or factory sign of the time. This is a genuine example of German historicist porcelain, produced during the height of the 19th-century fascination with English rococo models. Such figures are of collecting and decorative interest, especially when preserved in good original condition.
Condition: Minor losses to a few green leaves. No restoration. Otherwise excellent antique condition.
Dimensions: Height 18.2 cm, width 8.5 cm, depth 8 cm, weight 382 g.
