Blanc De Chine Blackamoor Figurine #2

This is a figurine made by the Schwarzburger Werkstätten around 1931 when he was first designed. That means he is one of the rare original pieces. I have not come across a white version of this piece before but it is just as stunning as their painted ones (which I have an example off for sale on. The figure is of a blackmoor holding a platter with two fish on it in one hand and a jug in his other hand. He is wearing a turban with a decoration to the front and a nice flowing set of pants. Typical rectangular base with a nice shape to it. The piece is in great condition with a tiny flat chip to the bottom of the base almost invisible from the side and he displays perfectly! The piece is the smaller version being about 7.25 inches tall, 2.125 inches wide and 4.375 inches long. He is marked with the under glaze blue fox mark as well as the model number U 752 over 2 and the impressed stamp stating Schwarzburger Werkstaetten für Porzellankunst. Impressed on top of the base we find the artist initials HM for Hugo Meisel. In blue we have Made in Germany above glaze on the underside. H.Meisel 1931 underneath the fish platter. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $399
