Tall Lady Figurine

This is a large figurine of a lady made by Derby in about 1765. The lady is very well modeled and quite beautifully painted! She is one of a pair of figures (I only have her!) known as the Ranelagh dancers. She is holding flowers in her hand. The figurine is in great condition with five leaves chipped a bit, a branch of the bockage is missing which does not take away from it and is not obvious on display either. There is a teeny chip to her coat on the back edge, her left hand has the tips of her fingers missing, her right hand has three fingers broken but oddly enough the flowers in her hand are in good shape with minimal chipping. There are some firing cracks common on the larger pieces on the back but none on the front and whatever white was in her hair in front of the red piece is chipped off (maybe a feather?). All in all she displays beautifully and the damage is really very minor. She is unmarked underneath but that's common as well. The figurine is 11.25 inches tall, 4.75 inches wide and 4.25 inches deep. Please email me for more information or other pictures.
