THIS LISTING
A fabulous piece from their 1960s collection; a gorgeous woman in Japanese attire.
This particular chalkware beauty measures approx 29cm (11.5") tall and is in great to excellent vintage condition. The only wear we can see is a couple of small areas of paint loss in the form of glaze flakes, but very small.
She is stamped on the reverse side with the year of manufacturer - 1965 in this instance - and has a felt base.
A highly collectible piece and a perfect addition to any mid-century home décor arrangement!
