About the Item

Stunning and rare Lladro retired serious clown with guitar by Salvador Furio. This is titled "Serious Clown with Guitar' and was sculpted by Salvador Furio. It began production in 1974 and was retired in 1979, thus making it very rare and highly collectible !! This is an early piece from circa 1975. The collector who we bought these from collected most of her extensive Lladro collection in the mid-1970's and early 1980's. It bears a number 232 and initials MM, it is also hand-initalled by the artist, Mr. Furio. 'Serious Clown with Guitar' depicts a seated Clown in his Clown uniform playing the Guitar. He got his name as 'The Serious Clown' because he does not possess very 'clown type features'. He has an intense stare as he is engrossed in the playing of his guitar. He clown uniform is simple and understated ...... no red noses here !!! He sits on a moss covered plinth with creeping ivy. It is fully marked and in mint condition! It sits on a later black lacquer plinth with silver label.

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...
