A charming and good quality figure depicting a woman and girl in the midst of some kind of performance.
This figure is sometimes identified as Queen Victoria and the Princess Royal (it pairs with a gentleman and boy which in turn is identified as Prince Albert and the Prince of Wales) but this is very unlikely given the shortness of the lady’s skirt. The figure may be attributable to the ‘Green Factory’.
This lovely figure is beautifully decorated with very nice patterns to the clothing and an appealing green base.
It is offered in excellent condition with only some enamel flaking.

Height: 9”
Date: c. 1850
