Vintage Italian Capodimonte-Style Porcelain Figurine, Seated Lady with Fan
Made in Italy in the mid-20th century in the Capodimonte tradition, a style of hand-painted porcelain figures depicting Rococo courtly life that was produced by numerous Italian workshops beyond the historic Capodimonte factory itself. This piece is marked only "Italy" on the underside, with no factory or studio stamp, placing it as an unattributed workshop example of the genre rather than a marked piece.
This piece depicts a seated noblewoman in full 18th-century dress, her crinoline skirt spreading wide in bands of turquoise, blush pink, and citrus yellow, each ruffle finished by hand. Her hair is swept up into a towering powdered style, and a folded fan rests against her chest, caught mid-gesture rather than posed. The glaze is high-gloss throughout, pooling slightly along every fold and seam.
Sourced at auction for Flamingo Estate’s 2026 Mother’s Day shoot, as part of a collection of important porcelain objects.
