    When you post the pictures, are you double clicking the icon?

    The mark looks like Meissen, but I don't believe it. The quality is not there, the modelling lacks finesse, the decoration is prosaic, and the mark is so frequently (and easily) faked. My guess for origin would be either Italy or Japan, but that's just a guess.

    Oh my,those are lovely! Of course thats the Meissen mark,one of the most copied in history,but I think yours might be the real thing.The quality looks superb. Now about those brown pottery lamps ! Very MCM,might be from a "name" like Stangl.I cant believe someone didnt want to "deal" with such nice stuff,they must be pretty darn well off to walk away and not care.

    Talk about different opinions! Look at those rubber arms, those slab hands, the color application. Look at the weight of the modelling. This is clumsy compared to Meissen. Pretty candlestick, but not Meissen.

    I agree nice but not Meissen...also zero wear to base..either very well taken care of or fairly new
