Coalport 'Ladies of Fashion' Henrietta Figurine (Underside)

The item is the underside of a porcelain figurine, likely part of a 'Ladies of Fashion' series, specifically the 'Henrietta' model, manufactured by Coalport. The base is predominantly white porcelain with intricate blue underglaze transfer decoration. These decorations consist of delicate floral and foliate motifs, lending an elegant and classic aesthetic. The central area of the base features a slightly recessed circular yellow mark, possibly a mold mark or an indication of where a firing support was placed during production. Below this, the maker's mark and series information are visible in blue script. The text discernible includes "COALPORT", the Coalport crown logo, "BONE CHINA", "MADE IN ENGLAND", and what appears to be "EST 1750", indicating the company's established year. Further text reads "Modelled and Decorated by Hand," emphasizing the artisanal quality of the piece. The series name "Ladies of Fashion" and the specific figurine name "Henrietta" are also clearly visible in elegant script. The edges of the base appear scalloped or ruffled, adding to the decorative nature of the figurine, though only the bottom is visible. The porcelain itself shows a smooth, glossy finish typical of high-quality bone china. Based on the visible marks and the 'Ladies of Fashion' series which was popular from the mid-20th century onwards, the estimated age of this piece likely falls into the mid to late 20th century. There are no obvious signs of chips, cracks, or significant wear visible on the underside, suggesting the figurine itself may be in good condition. The craftsmanship appears to be of high standard, as expected from Coalport, known for its fine porcelain figures.
