You are viewing up for auction an exquisite Capodimonte (Capo Di Monte) porcelain figure / figurine.
From an estate of a lovely collector. Guaranteed to be authentic and as described.
I believe this figure is of a Queen or Princess and I believe it goes as part of a pair for the other figure I have listed here as they were a set (King or a Prince?). It is marked with the blue N and the crown which per other websites date this figure to between 1771 - 1834. However, please note that I am not an expert and I am just posting information found from other websites regarding the meaning of the mark. Please do your due diligence regarding the look of the marks provided and their date / meaning.
In addition to the blue N and blue crown there are two orange marks which I believe are supposed to be a number as on one figurine it appears to be a 20. On this one however it looks slightly different. There is also an additional number stamped into the porcelain bottom (see photo as well) which appears to be a 32 and from what I can tell the initial G. I believe and another name that I can't make out. (please see photo) If anyone knows any additional information please feel free to share. I really appreciate it when fellow ebayers / enthusiasts take time out of their busy day to help others expand their knowledge!
Great porcelain sheen , pastels , gold and nice relief detail on the chair. On the female - there is some wear on the gold on the book as shown in photo. Also the bottom of the feet appear not to be chipped per se but worn down from balancing or perhaps even originally designed that way as the figure settles perfectly when standing and in order to do so the top of the feet have to be flat. Some tiny bubbles to the touch on the underside near the marks. Perhaps part of the signature although I believe it's just in the porcelain. No other chips or cracks that I could see.
Overall in great condition and a nice addition to anyone's collection. The female measures about 4 inches high when measured from the bottom of the chair to the top of the bonnet which is in great condition as well. (Note the female is slightly taller due to the height in the hat).
