Singer figurine is an expression of the designer's aspiration to simplify the form as much as possible - the shape of the sculpture is thought down to the smallest detail. Very important in this project is the decoration.
Every detail has been carefully thought out. The woman has her hands clasped in front of her, her head slightly upturned and her lips "painted with red lipstick" singing the operatic aria. Colorful dresses bring to mind the extraordinarily rich and beautiful costumes that opera diva wear.
Unfortunately, the dedication can not be placed on the figurine (it does not have enough space).
The figurine is often chosen for a gift for porcelain lovers.
It will be also an ideal gift for beginner collectors.
