Good morning all,
I wonder if anyone can help me identify a small lace maker model I
found recently.
She is modelled in porcelain, plain white, unglazed (bisque?) The
only identifying marks underneath are the initials C or possibly G W
surmounted by a crown in brown and some numbers impressed into the base.
She is sitting on a chair and holding a Dutch style pillow on her
knees and using Dutch style bobbins. I have a feeling that she is
modelled on a painting, but so far I haven't been able to find which
one. The modelling is very fine. Even the lace is detailed. It looks
like Bruges bloemwerk.
Has anyone any ideas of the origin?
