Very fine and detailed detailing of the composition consisting of many elements and different colors. High quality of the work using ancient technology for creating biscuit porcelain painted by hand. The signature under the pedestal is the early hallmark of the Samson factory. The work was made at the end of the 19th century, early beginning of the 20th century in the style of the 18th century. This is indicated by the hallmark that was used by the SAMSON EDEM factory during this period of time. In very good condition, except for some dirt that I was unable to remove from hard-to-reach places. Sorry, this became a difficulty for me ☺️ Photos are part of the description Dimensions: Height 6.299 in. Width: 4.133858 in. . A little history. The firm Edmé Samson et Cie (founded in Paris in 1845) is well known for its copies of the famous porcelain of Meissen, Sevres, Chelsea and Derby, but claims that all reproductions of the products produced by the firm will have a clear marking of the first manufacturer in order to avoid confusion with the originals, one more marking will be added Edmé Samson. Therefore, on our figurine there are two markings - the mark of the house of Capodimonte on the outer back part, since the original plot belongs to him, and the mark of Samson on the bottom of this figure. There are a lot of rumors associated with this company SAMSON ... Since the work of the copy of this house on the most famous names was of very high quality and in large quantities, they were used in the smuggling of original products on which they themselves put their own marks ... Unscrupulous antique sellers completely erased the SAMSON mark and passed off their products as original products. ...
