Description
Delight in the timeless charm of this Vintage German Porcelain Figurine by Metzler & Ortloff (MO). Crafted in Germany during the mid-20th century, this exquisite piece features a hand-painted pastoral scene of a young girl gently interacting with a resting fawn. With its high-gloss cream glaze, detailed green polka-dot attire, and soft shading on the figures, this MO ceramic work is a beautiful example of classic European export porcelain, perfect for vintage home accents or collector shelves.
The figurine is in Very Good Vintage Condition. The glazed surface is intact with no cracks, chips, or significant paint loss. Normal patina and light dust accumulation are present consistent with age. The unglased base rim shows minor wear typical of its era. The underside bears the authentic green decal mark: a crowned “M” with “GERMANY,” along with the faint pattern number 7560, confirming its post-1945 origin.
This Metzler & Ortloff girl and deer figurine makes a lovely gift for ceramic enthusiasts or a sweet addition to a nursery, cottage-style decor, or nature-themed display. Sold as a standalone piece; no box included. Please review all photos for details. Ships carefully packaged to ensure safe delivery.
