declaration
The Fancy Fox has clarified that the 18th Century Meissen Porcelain Figure of Putto with Urn c.1760 (LA466796) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being c.1760
condition
In excellent condition with no damage bar some very minor losses to the stalks of the posy. No damage or restoration. The urn would have had a cover originally I believe and there is some clear wear to the gilt on the rim and more minor wear to the gilt on the scrolls around vase. Minimal handling wear to the enamels. There is a short firing line inside the base of the urn.
