Pfeiffer Archer Figurine

This is a fun little figurine made by the Schwarzburger Werkstätten für Porzellankunst in the early 20th century when it was first designed. The figure was modeled by the famous Mauritius Pfeiffer who originally was a sculptor I believe. His pieces are extremely collectible! The figurine is of putto or young boy wearing a hat while holding a bow in his handle as if aiming at something. No arrow so it is likely meant to symbolize something like the a zodiac sign maybe?? The figure is nicely modeled and left in the white to show off all that detail - quite typical for this maker. A fairly hard to find piece! Raised oval base with the name of the designer impressed into the back as shown. The figure is in perfect condition! The piece is 4.625 inches tall and the base is just under 2.75 inches wide and 1.25 inches deep. It is marked with the impressed fox mark as well as incised U M 1 underneath not sure what that stands for as is doesn't seem to be a model number. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $149
