First word seems to be Nicolas.
Could be early 1900s.
I think it's meant to be Rococo rather than Art Nouveau, but could still be that same period.
The pictures go where the insertion line is (that blinking line that lets you know where the next thing will appear), so to get the photos below...
Rontgen has another company: Ackermann & Fritze, Volkstedt (Rudolstadt, Thuringia), 1908-1952. You can check the site "Porcelain Marks and More".
The x will be some production mark. If the color was done by hand, then probably the person who did that. Stuff like that was frequently piece work.
I suppose you could argue that the lion was an Assyria/Mesopotamia sort of thing, but I would agree that this is a tourist-type thingy and most...
Edwardian is my guess. First 2 decades of the 1900s.

If it matches the other figures, it's probably from the same company, maybe at a different time. The crowned N mark is very widely copied and has...
The decoration is an 18th C style called chinoiserie, but these are marked "Made in France" in English, so made for export and maybe as old as...

What are the dimensions? Are the upper shelves set with velvet? As mentioned, a picture of it open might be useful, as would a picture of the...
Just from the appearance of the ceramic, an idle guess would be Brazil. Long ago I had this piece marked Brazil (you can decide if there are any...
The not-exactly-Meisssen thread. Under glaze marks are permanent. Over glaze marks are as easy to erase as they are to add.
Seems 1920-ish to me.
These look better than that last figurine, but I very much doubt it. Just compare these to other Sevres busts online.
Separate names with a comma.
