<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rhiwfield, post: 313842, member: 924&quot;]That looks a nice piece.&nbsp; I do not discount the hobbyist theory but it could also be an early model for a production piece for a pottery. They were made by the modeller and then fired and decorated. Also firms such as Franklin mint and danbury mint used to commission figures, which had to be modelled for approval/sign off. Early stage figures would not be backstamped, I bought some unmarked bisque porcelain figures direct from a pottery in the 80s.</p><p><br /></p><p>The lace decoration reminds me of Dresden figures (and Irish Dresden) but that may be a red herring[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
