The figure is modeled standing in a dynamic pose, one arm raised gracefully above her head, the other resting at her hip. She wears a vibrant red ruffled dress with layered skirts, accented by black and white striped details and a polka-dotted underskirt. Her expressive face, adorned with earrings and a decorative comb, conveys elegance and movement typical of traditional Spanish dance. The surface is finished in a glossy glaze with hand-painted details, showing subtle variations that enhance its artisanal character. The underside bears an inscription reading “C. Stef. C. – Ballerina dell’Arte”, suggesting Italian manufacture. Very good condition. See less
