A fabulous piece from their 1960s collection; a gorgeous woman with Spanish headdress, known as a mantilla.

This particular chalkware beauty measures approx 28cm (11") tall and is in excellent vintage condition. The only wear we can see is a couple small crazing marks, as per the last pictures, which only show when reviewed closely.

She is stamped on the reverse side with the year of manufacturer - 1966 in this instance - and has a felt base.

A highly collectible piece and a perfect addition to any mid-century home décor arrangement!
