10. Satsuma Porcelain Figure

'Geisha'

A very fine late 19th century or early 20th century Satsuma porcelain female figure - probably a Geisha. Well sculptured and quite heavy.

The figure is hand painted and decorated in enamel with fine detailing over the entire figure and lots of gilding over much of the kimono. The face has excellent detail and depth. She looks very lovely and serene from every angle. Indeed, the figure epitomizes the beauty of Japanese women. Marks on underside. A fine example of Japanese Satsuma porcelain for sale.
