Vintage Porcelain Clown with Horn and Tamberine Figure (12"). Measures 12" in height. Very good condition. Has a spot that has antique store sticker residue I can't get off, see photo.
This charming 12-inch porcelain figurine captures a playful musical clown in mid-performance. Hand-painted with a soft, matte finish, the figure features expressive details from the gentle smile on the clown's face to the tiny pom-poms on his shirt. The color palette of muted pinks, sage greens, and pale blues gives this piece a classic European aesthetic reminiscent of mid-century Lladro or Zaphir style figurines.
Standing at a substantial height, this piece makes an excellent statement on a bookshelf, mantle, or nursery dresser. It is a wonderful find for collectors of circus memorabilia or fine porcelain art. Please note that there is a small area of stubborn sticker residue on the base from a previous shop, as shown in the photos, which may be removable with a specialized adhesive cleaner.
This item is vintage, over 20 years old. While it appears to be in very good condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
