Lady with Flower Basket Figurine #2

This is a figure of girl / young lady holding a flower basket in her left hand and a sickle in her right hand made by Meissen in the mid 18th century. She is wearing a nicely decorated skirt with some bows on the ends of her sleeves. Base is decorated with raised scrolls highlighted with gilding. The figurine is in good condition with some damages - the tip of the sickle is missing, a bit of damage to the bows and the handle of the basket is gone and some small chips to the goodies in the basket. Some glaze flaws from when she was made but all in all a very nice example of their early work. The bottom of the base is flat and filled with only the air hole in it typical for Meissen. She is marked with the blue crossed swords mark under the base but it's really faint which is normal on the unglazed pieces. The figure is 5.375 inches tall, 2.625 inches wide and 2.125 inches deep.

Price is $499
