    It looks German, late Victorian Period, I bet it has Bisque feel to it

    a poor copy of a meissen figure, Shepherdess, one of a pair

    Derby and Chelsea gold anchor also made figures like this and so dd the fakers Samson in France, but they world be much better quality.
    Your figure was made for the masses, the working class. sorry to say

    Retail £35 to £40

    now you will say I bought it in a charity shop for £4 or a car boot for £9
    bootle BILL always INVOICE.
    and never afraid to make a STATEMENT

    hi john , thanks

    no it feels like soft paste porcelain not bisque , it is very creamy , translucent and shinny.

    i agree it does have a german look to it.
