    No doubt this will turn out to be nothing but holding this piece it felt old and maybe might be something half decent so didn’t want to take it straight to the charity shop.

    Unmarked, measures 13 tall by 15wide

    Cherub mending a broken heart was a 19th century theme (who knew?) But I only saw Meissen examples,wich this isnt. So Im going to guess its later,and maybe Japan ? its cute as can be.

    Interesting to me that even though not painted, the back is still modeled, continuing the design on the front.
