Porcelain Figurine of a Rococo Couple

This is a porcelain figurine depicting a rococo or 18th-century style couple. The male figure is standing, dressed in a green overcoat with a frilly white jabot and patterned waistcoat, likely in shades of pink, blue, and green floral motifs. His breeches appear white or light-colored with dark shoes. He holds something indistinct in his hands, possibly a small flower or object. The female figure is seated elegantly, wearing a blue bodice with a gold-trimmed neckline and a large, full pink skirt over a white petticoat. The white petticoat is adorned with delicate floral patterns in reddish-brown and green. Both figures feature pale complexions, rouged cheeks, and powdered or greyish hair typical of the era, styled in period-appropriate updos. The base is an oval or elongated circular platform, white with gold accents along the rim, suggesting a polished finish. The figures appear to be in good overall condition, with no immediate visible chips, cracks, or significant paint loss from the provided image. The craftsmanship suggests a mass-produced decorative item, likely from the mid-20th century, consistent with items marked 'Made in Occupied Japan' (1945-1952). The quality is good for a decorative piece of its kind, with hand-painted details and gilded accents. There are no obvious maker's marks visible in the image, but the 'Occupied Japan' tag would typically be on the underside.
