(It stands 17.5cm tall). I've found the same on Etsy, however, each time I try to visit, I get a message...429 too many requests! :(

    I haven't a clue how to read the markings and would really appreciate your help in dating this. It looks hand painted and quite old, but who am I to guess lol

    Thanking you in anticipation :happy:

    I can't help you with age, but look closely. This looks like transfers to me. There is a haze around the edges that usually signals transfers to me. Also it is very uniform with no brush lifts. This is not meant to say it is not old. Transfer were used on old pieces. Look at the bottom. I can't see any wear. I am no expert by the way, but as an amateur this is what I look for.

    Hi, I didn't know the tell-tell signs, regarding transfers. And yes, of course, I forgot about the wear and tear on the base.
    Thanks for your reply. :happy:
