Beautiful large sculpture representing an Indian knight (cavaliere Indiano). This is a work by the ceramist Manna, an artist who worked in the 1920s for the prestigious Lenci porcelain company. After leaving the Lenci company, in the 1930s she decided to open her own workshop CIA (Ceramica Italiana Artística) and produce exclusive pieces in the Lenci style. Today few of the first pieces produced are preserved. This is an example of a classic art deco figure or sculpture produced in the early 1930s - 40's.
The sculpture is signed on the bottom with the name of the workshop, the title and the model number. It also preserves the original sticker on the base.
Old condition but in general very good condition. It has only two light chips on the base. It has not been restored. See detailed photographs. They are a fundamental part of the description.
