About the Item
A very scarce pair of Shelley porcelain figures one of a cheeky young boy wearing a hat and carrying a basket of flowers and the other of a girl wearing a pretty dress and matching bonnet carrying an umbrella and handbag both modelled by the famous English artist Mabel Lucie Attwell (1879 - 1964) who was well known for her popular cute, nostalgic drawings of children throughout the 1920s and early 30s. Her drawings are featured in many advertisements, posters, books and porcelain figures.
Shelley Fine Bone China was renowned for its high quality porcelain and produced in relatively low numbers these and other examples of Mabel Lucie Attwell’s work.
These fine bone China figures are in excellent original condition with no restoration.

19th Century Pair of Polish/German Stoneware Figures
Located in Dallas, TX
Presenting a lovely 19th century pair of Polish/German stoneware figures.
Quite rare!
Not a matching pair but similarly themed, with the little girl holding a basket of kittens with one kitten climbing up her front and the other of a little boy climbing a tree stump with a snail at the base.
The ‘Little Girl’ is painted stoneware or earthenware and we are of the opinion is Polish in origin (or possibly Russian). It does not have any identifiable markings but it was originally with another similar style figurine (not included in this sale) which had markings that we were of the opinion were Polish markings.
The ‘Little Boy’ is painted pottery and we are of the opinion that it is either Polish or German in origin. It is slightly different in style an texture to the girl and has a more ‘bisque’ finish. The facial features are more defined and remind me of German bisque dolls...
