Schierholz, Plaue, Germany, c.1865, offers a striking combination of sculptural presence, refined detailing and sophisticated colour harmony. Each figure stands around 50 cm tall, creating an immediate focal point ideal for a grand entrance hall, console table, or mantel in a luxurious interior.

Their silhouettes are beautifully balanced: barefoot figures poised against rustic tree stumps, with soft drapery that flows naturally around the forms. The palette — muted blue, lilac, ivory and straw yellow, enriched with delicate gilding — sits effortlessly within both classic and contemporary design schemes. Together, they bring warmth, character and a crafted elegance that elevates a room.

The modelling is crisp and expressive, from the gentle postures to the fine hair and fabric textures, reflecting the artistry of the renowned Schierholz manufactory during the height of its creative influence. As a matched pair of this scale, they are exceptionally rare and highly desirable, the sort of statement pieces that define the decorative identity of a home. This piece has an attribution mark,
