Featured European porcelain mark

Could use some help identifying the maker of this porcelain figure. It’s a little girl peering into a large open egg with three little chicks. I’ve looked through a lot of marks and not had any luck yet. Thanks.

 

Can we get a larger focused pic of the mark, please?

 

That’s as focused as it can get as it blurry on the piece. It appears to be a crown over a shield but what is inside the shield is not distinguishable.

 

I found one on Worthpoint but they couldn't read the mark either.

@Kronos - can you help @Steven S. out.

I'm wondering if it's a Galluba & Hofmann mark

one of the marks shown

 

It does look like Galluba & Hofmann.

The worthpoint listing one sold for $56.56 in 2008. Not really worth considering for pricing purposes.

Here's one with a similar theme: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/antique-german-deco-galluba-hofmann-518355260 sold for $255 (2014).

 

I think you got it @say_it_slowly!!

I had looked in Kovel's book & didn't see anything with a cross at the top of the crown & swirling letters on the shield.

I just looked up Galluba & Hofmann to see if I might have missed it but this book doesn't even have this mark included.

I did a search for their figurines & they did a lot of bathing beauties & nudes. Even in the photos, you could see the quality of their work.

There was this one though that someone called Girl with Chickens.

I don't think little girls come with hoofs.

Thanks everyone! I think that’s the mark. It’s a beautiful piece and I’m glad to know who made it.
