Antique Continental Porcelain Figurine Huntsman With Horn Musket and Dog circa 1880

Description

Here we have a lovely antique late Victorian period porcelain figurine of a Georgian or Regency period huntsman with his trusty dog at this side.

The figure was probably made in Germany and there is a faintly incised number on the base. It is made in the style of similar figurines as made by Meissen. The figure is decorated in underglaze or cobalt blue and he is a very dapper fellow with his tricorn hat over a wigged hairstyle.

He is wearing a frock coat and breeches and has a horn slung over his shoulder (small chip to the top of this) and is holding a musket in his right hand.

The figure stands approx 5 3/4 inches high and the base diameter is 2 inches. It weighs 222g unpacked.

This is a nice item to add to any collection of antique figurines or blue and white ceramics.
