This is a Vintage Lady With Flowers Figurine by Carlo Mollica, Italy. On the bottom it is signed with Carlo Mollica's signature and "Made Italy". She has pretty brownish blonde hair and wears a grey corset dress with pink and blue floral accented shawl and mid-skirt. The most exquisite part are the flowers at the base. They look very carefully made and placed. Although I am not a complete expert on Carlo Mollica or Italian porcelain, I would say that she is in pretty good vintage condition. She has some dust and film. T is some minor thin line whitish scrapes in her hair, but kind of blend in with the texture of her hair. T is a abrasion/indent along the edge of the base on her left hand side near the bed of flowers. But this abrasion indent looks like it was formed when the figurine was made - not completely sure. Besides, this abrasion/indent is more tucked underneath towards the bottom and it is not that noticeable unless you lift up the base or look right t The flowers and leaves have some minor chips and nicks mostly along the edges, but they are not too much in abundance (more on the sparse and sporatic side). Plus they do not distract from the overall look of the flower bed and still overall very nice. Due to the nature of the way the flowers and leaves were made and the fact that the flower bed is in a cluster, it is hard to tell if t is anything missing. The same goes with the flowers she is holding in her hand. It does look like though that a leaf, bud or flower is missing in the bunch she is holding in her hand and has broken off. But it does not distract from the overall look. T is are some thin abrasion scrapes and small abrasion spots along the edge of her grey skirt and pink and blue floral shawl. But these thin scrapes and spots are not in abundance and kind of blend in with the decorative nature of the figurine. T are some relatively small brownish red crusty spots and splotch like lines on different places of the figurine. But, these red spots and splotch lines look like they were formed when the figurine was made. Plus they are not in abundance - more on the sporatic side and do not distract from the overall look of the figurine. The figurine has eight small round green velvet like pads on the bottom. Also on the bottom t is perfectly shaped hole in the bottom, but looks like it was made on purpose. Inside the figurine t is something that sounds little rattling around - not sure what it is. Overall it is still really nice and still very collectible (if you are not too picky about the flaws mentioned.) I do not see any obvious repairs - no noticeable glue or unusual paint patches that I see. It looks all in original condition. It also looks like it was kept in a display case over the years. The figurine is good size - quite large. It measures about 10 1/2" high by 8" wide. Some of the other lights and reflections that you see are just in the photo and not on the figurine itself. Photos may not show all the flaws mentioned. I tried my best to describe this figurine, but may have not covered everything imaginable.
