This nineteenth-century Meissen porcelain figurine depicts a barefoot young girl holding a woven basket filled with flowers and vegetables. Modelled in the Rococo Revival style, the piece is formed from hard-paste porcelain with polychrome enamel decoration, featuring a blue bodice, white sleeves, and a pink floral patterned skirt, set upon an ornate Rococo scrollwork base highlighted in gold. The sculpture measures 13.5 x 5 x 6 cm. In a contemporary home, this decorative figurine suits placement on a mantelpiece, a display cabinet shelf, or a sideboard top. The compact scale integrates neatly into traditional cabinetry alongside other porcelain collectibles, bringing nineteenth-century European craftsmanship to a curated display space.

Manufactured in Saxony since the early eighteenth century, Meissen was the first European factory to produce hard-paste porcelain, becoming renowned for detailed figurines depicting pastoral, classical, and allegorical subjects.

These figures are crafted from hard-paste porcelain composed of kaolin, feldspar, and quartz, formed using plaster moulds, fired at high temperatures, and subsequently hand-painted with mineral enamel pigments before receiving gilt highlights.

Authentic examples feature the crossed swords factory mark painted underglaze in cobalt blue on the base, often accompanied by impressed model numbers, painter marks, and exceptionally fine hand-rendered facial detailing.

Position the figure inside a glass display cabinet, on a sideboard top, or alongside stacked art books on a shelf to create a focal point that adds historical character to a room.

Dust gently with a dry, soft-bristled brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding immersion in water or chemical cleansers that may compromise delicate enamel gilding or historic repairs.
