$1,600 USDBorsato - "Play Gypsy Play" - Wonderful Multi-Figural Sculpture
Porcelain:Borsato:Capodimonte:"Play Gypsy Play"
This is truly in Excellent ORIGINAL Condition, which is rarely seen with figures with this much lace. One frequently sees this particular figure offered with an add-on piece of lace around tthe shoulders instead of the correct presentation seen here; or with only a vase on the table; or other features lacking or poorly repaired. This was originally imported to the U. S. A. in 1979 as part of the Antonio Borsato Medallion Collection (BM771. This measures 7 and 3/4 inches by 8 inches. The world ...

$75 USDRoyal Doulton - "Captain Ahab" - Vintage Mini Character Jug - c 1970
Porcelain:Royal Doulton:"Captain Ahab":Character Jug:Moby Dick
I love how Royal Doulton always puts a pertinent and adorable handle on its Toby Jugs, even the miniatures! Captain Ahab sailed the whaler, Pequod, in Herman Melville's great 19th Century classic "Moby Dick." He lost a leg and then his life in pursuit of the great white whale.who triumphed in the chase and sunk his ship. Captain Ahab stands only 2 and 3/4 inches tall, but he has Moby Dick as a handle!

$1,800 USD Offers ConsideredSet of Four Rosenthal Children with Pets, from the Estate of Red Skelton, Vintage
Porcelain:Rosenthal:Red Skelton:Dogs:Children With Pets
These rare and beautiful old Rosenthal porcelain are in Excellent Condition. They had been purchased from the estate of Red Skelton, and re-sold to me. It is especially enjoyable to think that the great Red Skelton loved and handled these, and totally understandable why he would choose these precious figurines with the whimsical expressions and the childish staggering under the weight of some very patient pets. The tallest is a bit over 6 inches tall.
$2,000 USD Offers ConsideredREDUCED Very Early Borsato - "Orchardist" - Multi Figural Group, Exquisite Detail ; Signed,
Porcelain:Borsato:Capodimonte:"Orchardist"
How wonderful to find a Borsato with NO DAMAGE. Every leaf intact; colors vibrant. There is a great deal of difference between various pieces of the same design. Borsato is arguably the finest porcelain sculptor in the 20th Century. He died in an automobile accident in 1982. Partly because Borsato produced fewer pieces, since he wanted every detail to be perfect (and occasionally different). The turn of the head; the fingers (so rare to find them all intact!); and the expressions, have made ...
$600 USD ReducedREDUCED Borsato - "The Sorceress" - c mid 1960s
Porcelain:Borsato:Capodimonte:"Sorceress":Magic
This treasure is a small example of the master's work. This piece is in Excellent Condition, and is 5 inches tall. Borsato originals were sculptured in the full-round with no blank surfaces with the entire piece completely hand colored with brilliant artistry. All stages were attended to by Antonio Borsato himself. It is assuring to note that no Borsato was produced in mass or even left the studio without the Borsato hallmark worked permanently into the piece. This serves as a valuable asset to ...
$1,900 USDRoyal Worcester "The New Born" by Doris Lindner, Signed and Numbered, Closed Limited Edition, c 1975
Porcelain:Royal Worcester:Doris Lindner:"The New Born"
This is a unique opportunity to own one of the most desired examples of Doris Lindner's artistic excellence. Royal Worcester has long been a revered creator of fine china and porcelains. Doris Lindner proved to be one of their most sought after porcelain artists. Her series of horses are legendary, this being in increasing demand. This is Number 49 of only five hundred pieces in color. (There was an issue in white which is generally considered less desireable). The theme of mother and baby will ...
$85 USDVintage Doctor Figure - Adorable!
Porcelain:Doctor:Physician
This Rebis Porcelain physician is perfect for that hard to find gift for your doctor, or for your own collection. This rather intelligent looking doctor is ready for the examination, with stethoscope around his neck. He is quite professionally dressed in shirt and tie under his lab coat. This is one of two doctor figures I have that were made by Rebis Porcelain, and purchased by a friend in South America. The other figure, which I will soon be listing, has the tag from a shop in Rio. This stands ...
$1,500 USD ReducedREDUCED Incredibly Beautiful "Helen Boehm Yellow Iris" - Closed Limited Edition, Numbered, c 1978
Porcelain:Boehm:"Helen Boehm Yellow Iris"
This is so very beautiful that one has to touch it gently to realize it is not real. This was a very small edition of only 175 that was begun in 1978 and closed in 1980. It was only produced at the Boehm Studios in Malvern, England. This is a large piece; 9 inches tall and 14 inches across. It is in Excellent Condition. Carol Marren listed the price for this piece at $1,650.00. While rarely seen for sale, I have seen one since then that was priced at over $2,000.00. Now a bit about Porcelain in ...
$4,800 USD Offers ConsideredBorsato - "Meditations Of Don Quixote" - Fabulous!
Porcelain:Borsato:Capodimonte:"Don Quixote"
Pride of ownership is assured for the buyer of this wonderful piece! It is perfect in every detail. I have always felt a kinship to Don Quixote, and have tilted at any number of windmills personally! :-) Antonio Borsato was known for his incredible attention to detail. Each finger is perfect; a wonderful expression; and each creation colored differently. Sometimes a different tilt of the head, or background changes, making each sculpture an individual work of art. This is a large piece, 9 inches ...
$1,800 USD Offers ConsideredBorsato at his Best! "Genius at Work", Vintage, Signed,
Porcelain:Borsato:Capodimonte:"Genius At Work:"
What a marvelous piece! So unusual to find a Borsato with all the delicate fingers intact; and nothing broken or cracked! One sees many Borsatos with damage (usually minimized in ads) but substantially reducing the value. The individual rendition of each piece can be vastly different from others of the same model, making each one an individual work of art. Antonio Borsato died in an auto accident in 1982, at the height of his recognition as arguably the finest Italian porcelain sculpture of the ...
$450 USD Offers ConsideredREDUCED Large Yorkie With His Umbrella And Stand - From England, Retired Edition
Porcelain:Top Dog:"Yorkie"
What dog, other than a Yorkie, would have his own umbrella and stand??? This sculpture is retired from the Top Dog Series (naturally, the Yorkie is a Top Dog!), by Country Artists. This is a large and very heavy piece. He is 11 inches tall by 10 inches across, in Excellent Condition. With his original box.
$1,250 USD Offers ConsideredREDUCED Boehm - "Alec's Red Rose" - Closed Limited Edition, Signed and Numbered, c 1980
Porcelain:Boehm:"Alec's Red Rose"
Yes, we are offering two of Boehm's incredibly beautiful "Alec's Red Rose." This one is Number 16 of the series, which was comprised of only 300 total edition. This is the type of gift that is never forgotten. It is a visual caress; an expression of love. While porcelain is fragile, like love, when handled carefully, and appreciated, it can last your lifetime, and be handed down to generations to come. It is in Excellent Condition, and measures 7 inches tall and 8 inches across. It is Boehm ...
$150 USDDramatic and Unusual Asian Sculpture Of Lioness Killing a Water Buffalo
Porcelain:Oriental:Lion Killing Water Buffalo
This vivid ceramic sculpture is one that you will either love or hate........ but you cannot be neutral about it! The violence in nature may be offensive to you, or you may accept it when it is for survival. It is in Good to Very Good Condition except for the base showing age and wear; otherwise, no losses. It is 5 inches across, and 3 inches tall.
$250 USD ReducedREDUCED Lenox Belleek Pastel Floral Ewer Embossed in Gold, Elegant, c 1906-1924
Porcelain:Lenox:Belleek:Ewer
By the shape, we must technically call this a ewer. I think it is incredibly beautiful if one puts perhaps 3 short stemmed blossoms; or else put it in your cabinet; a lovely piece of American Belleek to treasure. This is in Excellent Condition. The Lenox Belleek Mark on bottom dates it to between 1906 and 1924. It is 6 inches tall, 4 and 1/2 inches wide.
$1,900 USDCybis - "Turtle Doves, Doves Of Peace" - Sold Out Limited Edition, c 1957
Porcelain:Cybis:"Turtle Doves"
In June, 1979, President Carter presented a Cybis Doves of Peace to his Russian counterpart, Soviet Communist Party Chief Leonid Brezhnev as a gift of state. When a special Cybis Limited Edition is presented to a head of state, or other world figure, it seems to enhance the value of that edition. (The Cybis Polish Bride, which had been presented to the former Pope on an official visit, is a good example, and is rarely seen for sale......except in my shop!) This marvelous porcelain sculpture was ...
$1,200 USDLladro - "Young Beethoven" - Sold Out Signed and Numbered Limited Edition -
Porcelain:Lladro:"Young Beethoven"
This is a wonderful piece for any collection! It was a Limited Edition of 2500, released in 1997, and which completely sold out. It's current price is over $1800.00. This is one of the Lladro pieces I recently bought from a retired jeweler, who had kept a number of Lladros that he felt were most desirable for appreciation, which he put away in their original boxes. This has only been out of its original box for my photographing it. This is Lladro Model Number 1815. It was modeled by Sculptor: Â ...
$3,800 USD Offers ConsideredLladro - VERY RARE "La Tarantella" Lamp - Edition Closed 1989, Made in Spain
Porcelain:Lladro:"La Tarantella":Lamp
This is a truly fabulous piece for the serious collector. It stands 24 inches tall and has three figures dancing. This is in Excellent Condition with no losses. It is listed as "Very Rare" in The Lladro Authorized Reference Guide, 2003-2004 Edition, and has Auction Range between $1500.00 and $2250.00. However, I was told by a Lladro dealer that he felt the current value would be between $5,000.00 and $6,000.00. The lamp comes without a shade, enabling you to pick your own.
$100 USD"True Love" - French Poodle Couple - 'Spaghetti Porcelain' - c 1950s
Porcelain:French Poodles:"True Love"
This charming couple is ready to play and enjoy life! They make each other happy, and should make you happy to look at their adorable personality! They are in Very Good to Excellent Condition. I can find no losses, but it is hard to really see each and every strand of "spaghetti porcelain." He is 3.5" long x 2.75" high; she is 3.5" long by 2.5" high. (After all, his tophat adds a bit of height!)
$650 USD Offers ConsideredCapo-Di-Monte Cache Pot With Figures All Around In Raised Relief
Porcelain:Capodimonte:Cache Pot
Lovely old Capo-Di-Monte cache pot in Very Good Condition, with less than the expected small signs of use and wear, and no losses. Italy has certainly produced many wonderful porcelain artists. This has such detail and beauty. Even the flowers painted under the handles. It stands 7 inches tall.
$300 USDFenton Sample - Chocolate Hobnail Swung Bud Vase, c 1982
Porcelain:Fenton:Hobnail Vase
I have never been exposed to Fenton creations until I had a chance to attend an auction of authentic Fenton pieces; primarily samples! This piece is simply lovely. It stands 11 inches and is in Excellent Condition. I would expect that these vintage pieces should appreciate in the future. Of course, all art should be bought for the enjoyment you get from the piece, and not for the unpredictable future! I was fortunate to purchase twelve outstanding pieces, which I will be listing in the next ...
$550 USD Offers ConsideredBoehm French Cachette, One Of Only 20 Made! c 1955
Porcelain:Boehm:"French Cachette"
Only 20 of this exquisite and understated lidded piece were made in this Glazed and Decorated rendition. (There were many more in the bisque undecorated pieces). The Boehm factory only produced these from 1954 to 1960, and the 20 of this decorated glazed model was quickly finished and sold out. While the Complete Guide To The Original Porcelain Art of Edward Marshall Boehm, by Carol Marren, published in 2003, listed its price as $325.00, it's rarity demands a higher price nowadays on the rare ...
$1,400 USDBorsato - "Don Quixote" - Wonderful Porcelain Sculpture -Great Detail - Great Humor!
Porcelain:Borsato:Capodimonte:"Don Quixote"
I have always loved Don Quixote. I felt as if we were alter egos, both tilting windmills frequently! This is one of several outstanding pieces of Borsato, duplicates of some of the pieces I have, that I was fortunate enough to buy at lower prices than I have paid in the past, so I will pass on the lower prices to my clients! Antonio Borsato exhibited such genius in his range of subjects; from religious, to opera, to exquisite charming ladies; to mythology and to Don Quixote! This Don Quixote is ...
$2,400 USDBorsato - "Flight Into Egypt" - Wonderful Multi-Figural Sculpture
Porcelain:Borsato:Capodimonte:"Flight Into Egypt"
This is a very beautiful and moving porcelain sculpture. I have always wondered about its title; perhaps in translation from Italian to English it might have been a bit different. . This is in Excellent Condition, and measures 11 inches x 12 inches. Borsato porcelain sculptures are considered the cream of Capodimonte porcelain. The book Capodimonte Collectibles, published in 1990, presents a fascinating history of Capodimonte porcelain, and clearly indicates that some 20th Century artists were ...
