Background information on Gräfenthal Porcelain
The history of porcelain from Gräfenthal (in the German state of Thuringia) is rich and dates back to the 19th century. Although various factories were active in the region, such as Carl Scheidig and Ernst Bohne Söhne, they were all known for their fine, handmade and often very detailed figurative porcelain, often in the popular Rococo or Victorian style.
These sculptures often depict aristocratic or pastoral scenes from the 18th century, characterized by flowing clothing and a romantic appeal. Examples that are marked and dated are particularly sought after by collectors.
This charming figurine is a valuable addition for collectors of antique German porcelain or as an elegant decorative piece to add a touch of classical charm to any interior.
