Early Lady Figurine

This is a figurine of a shepherdess made by Bow around 1760. She is nicely modelled and quite beautifully painted and looks very much like Meissen figures of this period rather than an English piece. She is holding some flowers in her apron, a flower in her hand and her sheep is by her side. Nice base with a flower by her feet. The figurine displays nicely but has sadly been damaged and the restorer went a little crazy with the overpaint. The hat has been worked on, the apron with the flowers has been worked on, I suspect she broke in half around the waist, both arms/hands were worked on and the sheep's ear and leg as well. A lot of damage but I am unsure how bad it really is with the over paint it is hard to tell. Still a beautiful and rare piece that displays very nicely! Typical hole in the back which would have received a bronze candle holder. She is unmarked underneath but that's the norm. The figurine is 5.75 inches tall, 3.25 inches wide and 2.75 inches deep. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $599
