Nuova Capodimonte Figurine of a Boy Harvesting Grapes

This is a detailed Italian ceramic figurine produced by 'Ceramica Artistica e Porcellana Nuova Capodimonte,' as indicated by the original hangtag. The figure depicts a young boy dressed in rustic peasant attire, featuring rolled sleeves and a textured vest, while carrying a large, heavy basket of grapes over his right shoulder. He holds a single grape leaf in his left hand. The figurine is crafted likely from a cold-cast resin or a matte biscuit porcelain, finished in an ivory or monochromatic cream color with a subtle brown wash or patina applied to highlight the fine details and textures. It is mounted on a rectangular wooden base. The craftsmanship displays high attention to detail in the anatomical features of the boy's face and hands, as well as the individual grapes in the basket. Based on the manufacturer's information on the tag, which includes two address locations in Napoli (Naples) and Arzano, Italy, along with modern telephone area codes, this piece likely dates from the late 20th century, approximately the 1970s or 1980s. The condition appears fair to good, with some visible surface dust and minor grime in the recessed areas (patina), but no obvious structural breaks or significant chips are visible in this view.
