Fairy Appraisal

Fairy Figurine with Flower Basket

This is a small, hand-painted fairy figurine, likely crafted from resin or a similar polymer material, designed for decorative purposes. The figurine depicts a female fairy, identifiable by her subtle, translucent light blue wings extending from her back. She has light brown, wavy hair and fair skin with delicate facial features, including painted eyes, nose, and lips. Her attire appears to be a light blue or teal dress. In her hands, she clutches a brown, woven-basket-like object, which is brimming with white and yellow daffodil-like flowers. The fairy is seated or positioned on a lush base of green foliage, adorned with additional white and pink flowers. The base suggests a natural, garden-like setting. The overall size is small enough to fit comfortably in the palm of an adult hand, indicating a height of approximately 3-4 inches. The craftsmanship suggests mass production with hand-painted details, characteristic of modern collectible figurines. There are no obvious signs of significant damage like chips or cracks, and the paint appears to be well-preserved, showing good quality for its type. No distinct manufacturer's marks or signatures are visible in the provided images. Given its style and apparent material, it likely dates from the late 20th or early 21st century. Its quality indicators are consistent with decorative pieces rather than fine art collectibles.
