Kneeling Porcelain Angel in Prayer with Gold Gilt Wings
Delicate and devotional, this small antique porcelain angel figurine captures a quiet moment of prayerful meditation. Kneeling with hands clasped, the angel rests upon a red cushion atop a blue and white pedestal base, her softly painted face and blond hair adding warmth and character.
Finished in glossy white glaze with gold gilt wings and hand-painted details, the figure reflects the gentle charm often found in late 19th- to early 20th-century European religious ceramics. While unmarked, the styling and gilded accents suggest French or German origin.
Petite in scale yet full of sentiment, she displays beautifully on a bedside table, shelf, or prayer corner and makes a thoughtful keepsake for religious milestones or seasonal décor.
Condition note: This piece is priced accordingly and sold as-is, with a noticeable chip to the base and areas of gilt and glaze loss consistent with age and handling. Please review photos carefully.
