This is an Antique Volkstedt, Triebner, ENS, Eckert Porcelain Figurine of a Woman Holding a Letter. She looks sad so the news in the letter must have been sad. This lovely figurine will make a great addition to your collection. It measures 7 3/4" high. It is in excellent condition being the only issue I could find is it looks like the very tip of one of the tiny flower petals on the front of her dress is chipped. Other than that I do ...not see any other chips, cracks, or other damage or repairs.
