Vintage Ceramic Musical Clown. Measures 8" in height. Good condition. Music works. I do not know the song. Needs cleaning in crevices.
Capture a moment of wistful charm with this beautiful vintage musical figurine. This piece features the timeless and poignant character of the Pierrot clown, rendered entirely in a glossy white ceramic glaze. The clown is depicted in a seated, reflective pose, dressed in a classic costume with a large ruffled collar, pom-pom buttons, and a soft, pointed cap.
The wind-up musical mechanism, located in the base, is in good working order. When wound, the figurine plays a lovely, gentle melody while slowly rotating, adding to its captivating quality. While the specific tune is unknown, it is a classic and pleasant music box song. This piece embodies the sweet melancholy that has made the Pierrot clown an enduring artistic subject for generations.
This musical statue would be a wonderful addition to a collection of music boxes or clown figurines. It serves as a beautiful and unique decorative accent for a shelf, dresser, or nightstand, and would be particularly sweet as a piece of nursery decor. It's a thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates the unique charm of vintage ceramics and the classic Pierrot character.
This item is vintage, over 20 years old. It appears to be in good condition and the musical component is working, though it could benefit from a detailed cleaning in its crevices. There may be other minor imperfections that I missed.
