Saint Anthony figurine by renowned Portuguese ceramicist Rosa Ramalho.
The figurine is crafted from earthenware clay with a distinctive yellowish-brown glaze characteristic of Ramalho's work. The figure displays the elongated proportions typical of Ramalho's folk style, with a cylindrical body and minimalist facial features.
The base of the figurine is marked with "RR" initials, Ramalho's signature mark.
Rosa Ramalho famous Portuguese potter 1888 -1977, stands as one of the most important figures in Portuguese folk ceramic art. This is a true collectable piece.
Condition - This does show some signs of wear, given its age, which I have tried to show in the pictures, including a small chip to the nose and a crack on the back.
Dimensions - 23 cm H.
