...sale. This is one of the treasures I picked up last week at the estate sale. She is a bit chipped and worn, but I love her peaceful expression. The owners told me she is in the art deco style...which I'm not too familiar with. I just collect what appeals to me. She will keep me company in the studio.

She is almost life size...her noggin' is a bit smaller than mine, but I'm smarter.

She looks like one of the saints. I want to say Ste. Catherine but, I'm not sure.

She is beautiful. We like the pictures---bring 'em on.
Art Deco style was as style of opulence during the 20s and early 30s. I would put this at an earlier time---but I'm no expert. Like you said I get what I like. MB

She looks more from the medieval style period to me, but no matter, she's beautiful

She looks like a very nice lady Rhonda. You could even put a lot of your old or not worn jewelry around her neck. I don't think she will talk your ear off she looks like the quiet type.

I think she could keep lots of secrets and never tell. How beautiful she is....and I bet she is glad to have such a good home and a new friend.

And if Antiques Roadshow ever comes to a town close to you, take this gal for info!!!! She looks like a keeper.
