Description: A fantastic porcelain figurine of a young lady with her arms around the neck of a dappled pony, produced by Rosenthal (Germany), one of the world's finest porcelain companies. Fully hallmarked, with the hallmark indicating that this figurine was produced in 1940. Under the plinth it is impressed with the artist's name, MH Fritz, and also the model number. The quality of this piece is absolutely outstanding, with lovely, detailed hand painted decoration, and a crisp highly detailed mold. The nude woman smiles as she hugs the horse, who acknowledges her sweetly. Horse collectors and fanciers will appreciate the superb modeling of the horse, as well as all the realistic decoration, from the lush wavy mane and tail to the gorgeous dapple decoration. This large figurine measures 12" tall by 11 1/2" long. From my personal collection, it has been displayed behind glass in a cabinet since I purchased it in 1999. I have reexamined it under a black light and lighted magnification. It has a factory kiln pop on the non-viewing side, lady's right hand middle finger (see last photo). The flaw was there when I purchased it. No repairs or restorations. Please enlarge and examine all photos carefully as they are considered part of the description. This item will be carefully and properly packed for shipping (double boxing), and local pickup is available as well.Please see our other listings for more quality porcelain dog and horse figurines and collectibles. Due to the size and fragile nature of this item, shipping cannot be combined with any other purchases.
