"UPDATE ON VALUE: I found a similar one in the link. She has a broken right hand and was appraised, pre-auction at $100-150. Don't know what the hammer price was. Yours is much more elaborate and if unbroken, I believe would be valued around…"

"Those trees look like fig trees, suspect they were made in the Middle East, Egypt, Persia, Turkey?  Hard to say.  Mid-late, 20th Century for export."

"These also look to be of German or Austrian origin. They are hand painted and attractive. But you probably won't find the exact maker. It's next to impossible to do so, there were hundreds of porcelian manufacturers in Germany for…"

"You are correct - these are not Meissen - They are more likely Dresden - From Germany ca. 1940's-50's. Not terribly old. But nicely done. These figurals are sometimes difficult to sell, as they have fallen out of fashion in recent years.…"
