SET 2 Antique GEBRUDER HEUBACH Porcelain Figurines BOY & GIRL W MILK JUGS c1900 Size: Girl is 12" high x 4" wide at widest, Boy is 11 7/8" high x 4" wide at widest.  Beautiful fine porcelain figurines meticulously handmade circa approx. 1900 A graceful and elegant depiction of a girl and a boy in the 'peasant' style which was so popular in the late Victorian era.  Bisque porcelain with a matte finish, but there is some gloss enamel on the clothing patterning The girl is holding a milk jug in her right arm and the corner of her apron in her left hand. She has a kerchief on her head and a ruffled blouse with a vest. Her clothing and shoelaces have hand-applied gold gilding.  The boy is holding a handled milk jug in each hand. He is wearing a peasant style hat and shirt and knee length trousers, with tall socks. His clothing and shoe edges have hand-applied gold gilding.  Both figurines are painted with soft pastel colors in a matte finish. Both have polka dots on their clothing- the girl has gold gilt dots on her apron, the boy has cobalt blue dots on his shirt.  Both are supported by a large tree trunk with very small bark and limb detailing, which the  GEBRUDER HEUBACH company used on most of its larger figurines. The tree trunks add a beautiful and finished touch. The boy has the number 76 hand painted in gold in antique script on the inside of his base.    Looks gorgeous from any angle  A very nice size, quite heavy. Magnificent quality.  Excellent antique condition but for one very minor chip at the tip of the spout on the pitcher in the boy's right hand - very minor and difficult to notice because it is downward facing & small. See last photo.  3 tiny fleabite nicks at the boy's base where it would rest against a table- normal for age.  Other than that the set is PRISTINE- No nicks, chips, cracks, scratches, crazing, fading or repair. Flawless.  Highly collectible and very rare estate pieces.  Wonderful for a serious collector and would look beautiful on display        Ships fully insured & w tracking provided Please note the following, dear fellow shopping enthusiasts: I strive to give you the best service possible.
