Description: Blackamoor Nubian Figure Statue Ceramic Woman 22K Gold Gilding MCM "Blackamoor" is a type of figure/visual trope in European decorative art, typically found in works from the Early Modern period, depicting a man or woman of sub-Saharan African descent, usually in clothing that suggests high status. Some people consider these figurines a problematic item, as they were many times shown in locations on furniture usually held by animals. (support, etc.) Some folks like the more neutral presentation, as this one is, with simply a standing figure. This was owned by my parents, and Mom said these were sold as 22kt gold gilded. I cannot find any markings for that, nor am able to test for it, but want to include the note. • I think this is painted chalkware. • Approx. Dimensions: 8" tall • Condition: Preowned. Crack on the left side as shown in the final pictures. Gold has minimal fading or scratches. On the waist, there is some sticky residue that I have not attempted to remove, as well as a "dribble" of the gold gilding. See second to last photo. Some scrapes/scratches as shown. Still nice, displayable, condition. Thank you for shopping! Always happy to answer any questions. Cheers! Go green, re-use & recycle. Buy used ... we do!
