She stands serenely with rosy cheeks, wearing a flowing gown richly decorated with gilded floral motifs. The porcelain is a fine lily-white, carefully hand-painted in deep, vivid tones that lend warmth and vitality to the figure.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThough unmarked, the colour palette and styling are closely reminiscent of the Bow porcelain factory—an early British manufacturer known for its rivalry with Chelsea in the soft-paste porcelain scene. Alternatively, the piece may be a product of the Samson factory in Paris, renowned for its faithful and high-quality reproductions of 18th-century British porcelain. Samson's craftsmanship often equalled—and at times surpassed—that of the originals, making their works highly collectible in their own right.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMeasurements\u003cbr\u003e\nHeight: 21.5 cm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nCondition\u003cbr\u003e\nExcellent antique condition. Minor damage visible under magnification to several leaves in the basket, otherwise the figurine is pristine with no chips, cracks, or restoration. The overall paintwork and gilding are beautifully preserved.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nShipping \u0026amp; Packaging\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped fully tracked and insured.\u003cbr\u003e\nShipping cost includes labour, packaging, and postage.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nPlease review all photos carefully and feel free to ask any questions before purchasing.\u003cbr\u003e\n","brand":"Gillers Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62885282611530,"sku":null,"price":425.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1066\/5351\/6106\/files\/il_fullxfull.6788160941_rlat.jpg?v=1785920943","url":"https:\/\/gillersantiques.com\/products\/antique-porcelain-lady-figurine-bow-samson-style-gilt-floral-gown-c-19th-century","provider":"Gillers Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
