Oppel Lady Lyre Player Figurine #2

This is a superb figurine made by the Schwarzburger Werkstaetten around 1919 when it was first designed. That means she is one of the rare original pieces. And also a very typical figurine for them in the style and coloration of the Art Nouveau period. The piece was designed by the famous Gustav Oppel - a freelance designer who did designs for the Schwarzburger Werkstätten for Porzellankunst in Unterweißbach , the Aelteste Volksstedter porcelain factory in Rudolstadt , Rosenthal in Selb and the Fraureuther porcelain factory. The figure here is of a female lyre player modeled superbly and hand painted to perfection in their typical style. The piece is in perfect condition. The figure is 10.5 inches tall, 4.375 inches wide and 6.375 inches long. The piece is marked with the impressed fox mark as well as the model number U 219. For some reason the words Schwarzburger Werkstaetten fuer Porzellankunst were ground away. Not sure why that is. Also impressed on the base we find the artist name G.OPPEL.19 as shown.
