A gorgeous Chelsea figure of Dick Whittington, created in hollow moulded gloss finish porcelain expertly painted and gild trimmed, characteristics of a German piece, dating from the 19th Century, when main UK companies were copying that angelic Germanic look. Initially I did toss up whether it was an earlier Derby figure because of the weight. However the general concensus appears to be with Chelsea.
The figure is in excellent condition, there is some gilt loss, otherwise in very good condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. It measures 19.5cm or 7 3/4 " in old money..:). The base diameter is about 6.5cm in diameter.
