This is a stunning and rare ceramic figure of a seated or mourning woman signed ‘L. HJORTH’ and ‘Denmark’. Also on the base is the L. Hjorth stamp (of a deer) and the number of the piece 830. The piece is in excellent condition and is decorated with a red-brown and ocher colored glossy glaze. I am unsure of the designer but suspect it to be Gertrud Kudielka. Information: Lauritz Hjorth (1834-1912) set up his pottery in Bornholm, an island off the coast of Sweden, in 1859. It operated until 1993 and then re-opened in 1995 as a working museum. For much of its history it was operated by descendants of Lautriz Hjorth. Measures 7″ H x 3″ x 4″ and weight 1.14 lb. without packing materials. I will wrap carefully and ship by USPS priority mail. I can ship outside of the US but please let me know your country prior to purchase. International buyers will be responsible for all local fees and customs.
