Description
A charming antique German porcelain figural spill vase or small planter featuring a sleepy young boy dressed in white night clothes.
The child is modelled with one hand raised to his face beneath a soft nightcap, creating a wonderfully expressive bedtime scene. Beside him is an open vessel suitable for displaying small flowers, dried stems or simply enjoying as an ornamental porcelain piece.
The predominantly white glazed porcelain is beautifully contrasted by rich turquoise and cobalt blue decoration around the sculpted foliage and ornate base. Subtle hand-painted facial details, warm brown hair and small coloured accents add character without taking away from the delicate early 20th-century appearance.
The base carries a faint impressed Germany marking together with mould/reference numbering, although the individual manufacturer has not been positively identified.
