Exceptional Sitzendorf double salt girl on baskets
Wonderful hand-painted detail on this colorful German, Meissen-style double salt. A pretty girl with striped skirt, a flowered hat, & red shoes, sits astride 2 flower baskets, holding a single flower in her left hand. The piece is marked in blue under the glaze (see photo). My research attributes this mark to Sitzendorfer Porzellen-fabrik Gebruder Voigt, 1858-1896. There is another place under the base where a second mark looks to have been scratched off. I could not get a clue as to what was in that 2nd section. This is not my area of primary interest, so please look at the photos & make an intelligent judgement for yourself. I have had this piece for quite some time. What attracted me most, was the detailed painting of each individual hair in the girl’s eyebrows! And, of course, her gold trimmed red shoes. Base measures 4" x 2 ½"; 4 ¾" tall. No damage. Buyer to pay for shipping by USPS Priority with Delivery Confirmation, 2 lbs. from 06068. #462
