Gustavsberg Parian Figurine

This is a parian porcelain figurine made during the Art Nouveau era by Gustavsberg ( or Gustafsberg ) in 1921. Gustavsberg Fabriker was founded around 1827. Not much noteworthy happened here until the end of the 19th century. They were the only European maker outside of England to make bone china. Under the leadership of Wilhelm Kaege they finally produced their own style of items which were very good. Bernd Freberg seems to be the modeller of most of the good figurines. The figurine is of a boy sleeping on top of his dog. It is very well modeled and in superb condition. The boy has some small firing cracks in one area on his back arm but that's from the making and doesn't distract from the piece at all. The figure is 3.75 inches tall, 7 inches wide and 6.125 inches deep. Marked in the back with the impressed Gustafsberg over an anchor mark with the year 1921. Also an impressed letter F.
