Unusual French Dresser Set of Figure of Pierrot

Comical presentation of a seated “ Pierrot”, mouth open, eyes gazing both forward and downward, with arms clutching what appears to be , at least from the outside front, to be a large piece of white paper. However, when turned to either side, and/or looking from the back, one observes straight black lines running horizontally left to right with a distinct space in the middle. As the paper lacks any musical notes he may not be singing, possibly reading aloud a newspaper either to himself to anyone who might listen. .Pierrot wears his required costume with long sleeves, black cap, side curls, and huge ruffled collar. The seated figure is 4” ( 10cm ) tall, 5 ½” ( 13cm ) front to back, and 4” ( 10cm ) wide. It is very heavy, in very good condition, and is impressed on base underneath “ 23044 “ and also has an impressed logo that appears to be that of a crown and also the letter “S”. ( Perhaps Goebel ? ). Very good condition and designed with great imagination and sense of humor.
