W&A Romantic Porcelain Pair

A passionate pair dressed in historical attire is shown in this GDR (East Germany) porcelain figurine by W&A: Wilhelm & Adelheid. The male is dressed in a green top and blue knee breeches. While the woman is wearing a full-skirted gown in pink and blue. The statues are supported by an elaborate white scrollwork base. This item is a prime example of the East German porcelain style of the mid-century, which sought to replicate the allure of classic German porcelain at a price point that was more accessible to regular collectors.
