THIS PIECE HAS BEEN SOLD AND IS LISTED FOR REFERENCE ONLY....
From The Little Women series, this is Sylvia. From the early days of Muriel's career, this California piece is breathtaking. She includes the name label and the oval black/gold California label. THe rose petals are all intact, and the gold accents very shiny. How does this happen with a piece this old (potentially up to 70+years)? These older pieces were made with a grade of porcelain that makes them very lightweight. The bottom is incised and also has two small painted lines. I've also seen it in red, a red v or red dots. I wonder if it was a certain painter's ID...only a guess and another question that we'd love to ask Muriel about. The search will go on forever...
She SOLD for $80 plus our flat rate shipping to anywhere in the continental US. Thanks for looking!
