Animal figurines comprise a spaniel with a flower basket, a sheep, and a polar bear surmounting a trinket box. The lot is completed by several egg-shaped and rectangular trinket boxes with floral and landscape designs, a miniature ornate floral teapot, a hand-painted bowl with a butterfly motif, a cobalt blue decorative shoe, and a floral orb. No factory marks are clearly visible to the exterior surfaces. Various heights up to 12cm.


Condition report:

The items are in fair to good condition overall. There are minor losses to the delicate porcelain lace on the ballerina figurine. Some pieces show light wear to the gilded edges and painted decoration consistent with age. No major structural damage or significant repairs are apparent.
