Victorian Lady Figurine with Teacup

This is a ceramic or porcelain figurine depicting a Victorian-era lady, likely from the late 19th or early 20th century, or a modern reproduction in that style. She stands gracefully, holding a delicate teacup and saucer in her left hand. Her attire is characteristic of the period, featuring a long, flowing cream-colored gown with subtle embossed or painted floral patterns on the skirt, particularly visible on the front panel. The gown appears to have a prominent bustle or fullness at the back, indicated by the folds and sweep of the skirt. Over her gown, she wears a forest green bolero-style jacket with puffed sleeves, which adds a striking color contrast. Her neck is adorned with a painted pearl necklace. Her hair is styled in an elaborate updo, dark brown in color, with some subtle decorative elements that might represent flowers or a hair ornament. Her facial features are delicately painted, including defined eyebrows, eyes, and rosy lips, giving her a serene expression. The figurine exhibits a smooth, glossy finish typical of glazed ceramic or porcelain. While no specific maker's marks are visible in the provided image, the craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, with attention paid to the details of her clothing, hair, and accessories. There are no immediately apparent cracks, chips, or significant wear visible from the provided angles, suggesting it is in good to excellent condition. The base is an integral part of the sculpt, seamlessly flowing from the dress. The overall impression is one of elegance and period charm, possibly intended as a decorative collectible.
