Lovely courtship scene of a Victorian couple.  In excellent condition - no chips, cracks, crazing, paintwork is vibrant with no paint loss and clean item, base in very good order too. 

Gräfenthal was founded in 1859 by businessman Carl Schneider / Artist Karl Unger.  Its under Base has the Blue Gräfenthal stamp '1859 Made in GDR' under glaze employed from 1886 onwards. The back bottom side is etched ‘Germany 20354.’  Any shading marks seen in images are the way these pieces were manufactured and are NOT flaws.
