Priced to sell!
This is a large andfabulous antique French porcelain group figurine depicting a courting couple sitting on a bench with an angel? hiding in the tree above them whilethe man declares his love to the woman. Finely modeled, and beautifully hand painted, it is a superb early piece. Itmeasures a large 13 1/4\" tall by 10 1/2\" wide, and it\'s Marked with Samson Paris France makers mark ( blue X w/ line), late 19th to early 20th century.
Gorgeous working lamp with 2 separate bulb pulls ( can make brighter).
Condition: The woman has a tip chip on the thumb of her left hand. The man just has a little paint off black shoes.There are a couple small leafs of flower on ground and a chipped petal and there are losses to some of the ends of the tree branches and to some of the leaf tips and edges, one branch has been glued and I have another piece ( I added a picture of it) I will add to box and you can decide what to do with it; please examine photos.
Thecord is fabric covered and a bit frayed, but works. The lamp part is (not original-but works well with size etc.)) wired on and has moved. It can be fixed better ( you can see where it used to be right next to angel on his back). Also, the angel has a small hole in his side, not sure what he used to have (maybe Bow & Arrow?).
All quite minor to the display, which is magnificent!
Sorry, the shade is not included.
Please ask about shipping Internationally...I am willing if you will pay for insured shipping.
