Figural Candlestick

This is a figurine of the famous miner set first designed by Simon Feilner. This one is a large handpainted figurine carrying a basket of stones over his head. The center of the stones has a large hole in it to serve as a candleholder. I have not seen this model before and suspect it was just made as a limited edition for a special order. The piece is in superb condition with a small chip to the back coat rim which is mostly a paint flake. The figurine is 10.25 inches tall, 4.5 inches wide and 4.25 inches deep. He is marked with the script F under a crown mark as well as with a square with the letter GEW (Gewerkschaft Eisenhütte Westfalia) in it and the red number 13.
