Absolutely adorable! Vintage Hungarian-made in the 1950s porcelain figurine by Hollohaza of two girls sitting and reading a book together (or a mom and daughter). Folk art style, with sparingly applied polychrome glazes and beautiful subtle detailing. Mostly white, with dark orange, light orange, yellow, bluish-green, bluish-violet, and tiny touches of brown and black glazes. The older girl is mouth-ajar reading aloud, while the younger girl is smiling.
Hollohaza, founded in 1831 (along with Herend and Zsolnay) are revered as the finest producers of porcelain in Hungary.
Would make a fine Big Sister Little Sister gift, or daughter's Mother's Day gift.
