    Hello,

    I bought this Meissen style porcelain figurine recently. Please find attached photos FYI.
    Could you please help me identify its age and origin? Thanks in advance! 51816-0 (1).jpg IMG_1084.jpeg IMG_1081.jpeg IMG_1082.jpeg IMG_1083.jpeg

    Taking from the Meissen site From 1924 to 1934, the Crossed Swords were given the "Pfeiffer Dot" between the blades. After 1934, the uniform sword mark was only very slightly altered. They have now stood for craftsmanship in perfection for 300 years. Not saying it is Meissen Happy Buddha but I did sell one a few years ago that was a nodding one. Good money! https://www.meissen.com/net/momentodetail/300-years-swords

    I hesitate to use this source as apparently it's not always correct but, from Rontgen's book On German Bohemian and Austrian Porcelain.

    Some of the Nonne marks are similar, perhaps a direction to look?
