This superb porcelain figurine is a rare find!! In mint condition, this Lippizaner stallion and rider stands 10 inches tall and is about 8 inches wide. Made in Austria, the markings on the bottom are Wien AUGARTEN WIEN AUSTRIA and the number 36. In addition, the number 1668 is stamped into the glaze, above the number also in the glaze is a word with the letter "H" after it. I can not make out the word. On one side of the base is "Hofburg Wien" and on the other is "Pirouette - Spanische Reitschule." This stunning stallion and rider in his red jacket are in pristine condition. T is no damage of any kind, no chips, cracks, crazing, repairs...it is mint!! In addition, the hand painted detail and the coloring are breathtaking!! The pictures simply do not do this piece justice!! A wonderful addition for any collector and a great new years gift. Happy bidding and thanks for looking!!
