Nice Vintage Geo Martel Desvres French Ceramic Figurine Woman Carrying Baskets

Description

This auction is for a beautiful vintage French Geo Martel of Desvres earthenware/ceramic pottery figurine of a woman carrying baskets as shown in the pictures taken with and without flash. This figurine has wonderful color, painting and design work. For its age, it is in nice condition, with no major chips, cracks, hairlines or repairs. However, there is some glaze missing and/or a small chip on her nose as shown. But overall it looks really nice and would make a wonderful addition to anyone’s fine French pottery collection. The bottom of the figurine is marked with Geo Martel’s signature and the numbers 2563, another symbol and some other writing which may identify this figure. This figurine stands about 5 1/4 inches tall by a little over 5 inches long by 2 1/2 inches wide which make up the sides of the baskets. Please review all pictures carefully as they constitute part of the description.  Thank you for all the information!
