Very Old Goldscheider
Item Description
Super small Goldscheider bust of a north African lady with a wonderful face, wearing a jewelled headband around her forehead.
Numbered 323 verso, this is very similar to model no. 1044 illustrated on p. 20 of the book by Ora Pinhas and must surely be by the same artist. This one however is a little smaller at just under 30 cm and incorporates a wooden stand very similar to model no. 461 shown on p. 17 of the same book.
Dating from 1888-90, it is in very good condition, with a little professional restoration having been done to part of the headband.
