  • 19th Century Pair of Polish/German Stoneware Figures
    Located in Dallas, TX
    Presenting a lovely 19th century pair of Polish/German stoneware figures. Quite rare! Not a matching pair but similarly themed, with the little girl holding a basket of kittens with one kitten climbing up her front and the other of a little boy climbing a tree stump with a snail at the base. The ‘Little Girl’ is painted stoneware or earthenware and we are of the opinion is Polish in origin (or possibly Russian). It does not have any identifiable markings but it was originally with another similar style figurine (not included in this sale) which had markings that we were of the opinion were Polish markings. The ‘Little Boy’ is painted pottery and we are of the opinion that it is either Polish or German in origin. It is slightly different in style an texture to the girl and has a more ‘bisque’ finish. The facial features are more defined and remind me of German bisque dolls...

  • 19th Century Portrait of an Elderly Lady in the Style of Jacob Eichholtz
    By EICHHOLTZ
    Located in Dallas, TX
    Presenting a lovely early 19th century portrait of an Elderly Lady In the Style of Jacob Eichholtz. Nice sized portrait of an eldery lady of high status from circa 1820. She has brown curly hair (suggesting that she may not have been as old as she appears) with a beautiful lace bonnet with intricate lace collar and black period dress which is suggestive of a ‘mourning’ period. Oil on Canvas mounted on a wooden fame with nails and glue. Unsigned …. but most definitely in the style and manner of Jacob Eichholtz who was a renowned Pennsylvanian artist known for his portraits of families of status and wealth in and around Pennsylvania in the early 19th century.
