Antique 18thC KPM Berlin Venus Porcelain Figurine Porzellan Figur Goddess Figure
A figurine of Venus in the form of a lady holding an arrow in her right hand and trying to cover herself up with her left hand made by KPM in the late 18th century. The figure is superbly modeled and hand painted very nicely!
The figurine is in good condition with the arrow is damaged and looks to have been previously repaired and broken again. A tiny and a larger chip to the underside base edge that are hard to spot when she stands. Not hard fixes if one wanted it done and she looks nice as is! The piece is 5.125 inches tall, 1.875 inches wide and 1.625 inches deep.
The figurine is marked underneath with the late 18th century under glaze blue scepter mark and in the back of the base you can see the name VENUS impressed. And as we all know Venus was the goddess of love, loving and all that good stuff.
