Ankerglas Bernsdorf Art Deco Blue Glass Seated Nude Lady Figurine

Description

A wonderful art deco frosted blue glass semi-nude 'seated lady' figurine. Similar to a design by British maker Sowerby, but with differently positioned legs. Thought to most likely be made by German company Ankerglas Bernsdorf. This design is not shown in any known catalogues, but the shape of the base, and in particular the unusual shape of the drilled flower holes, is a match for a catalogued vase and bowl set, pattern number 547. This figurine can also be found with a matching bowl that is very similar in style to the bowl that comes with the vase.

Size

Measures approx 5.5 inches tall by 2.5 inches in diameter at widest point.

Condition

Has some cracks to the base part, shown in final pictures, a tiny fleabite to her arm, and a couple of manufacturing "straw marks".
