Asian Gentleman w/Fruit Basket Figurine

This is a figure of a Asian gentleman made by Nymphenburg in 1924. Nymphenburg made a whole series of these and they are really nice. This one here is a gentleman wearing a nice outfit with red flowers and a blue trim, a large straw hat and holding a superb reticulated basket in front of him filled with fruit. The base is nicely done as well. Off course based on an 18th century Frankenthal model hence the CT mark as well as their mark. The figure is 5.5 inches tall, 3.25 inches wide and 2.75 inches deep. Marked with the impressed shield mark to the center front base as well as underneath, the numbers 1173/b over 0 and the CT monogram under the crown as well as the year mark for 1924. The figurine is in superb condition with one chipped leaf in the basket that is hard to spot. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $599
