Meet our pensive porcelain prima ballerina, caught in a moment of quiet between curtain calls. Seated and serene, she gathers a posy of roses in her lap while her vast skirt blooms across the floor in clouds of hand painted pink florals. With her gilded slippers, her little pendant and the soft tilt of her head, she is the very picture of romantic German porcelain at its most theatrical. A fine collectors figurine in the grand Dresden tradition, modelled and decorated by hand.
She measures a generous 26 cm across that flower strewn skirt, a real statement piece rather than a dainty afterthought. The colouring is delicate and assured, the gilding still bright, and the whole thing radiates a kind of vintage boudoir glamour that never quite goes out of fashion.
Styling & Collectors Inspiration
This is a figurine that loves company. Set her among other hand painted ceramics and gilded treasures and watch a vignette come to life.
