Description
Victorian-style decorative figurine featuring a cherub angel riding a carousel horse. The angel is adorned with a floral crown and purple wings, seated on a white horse with pink and gold accents. The pedestal base features draped ribbon detailing. Measures approximately 4-6 inches tall.
Key Features
Cottagecore/Shabby Chic aesthetic, whimsical carousel theme, popular cherub motif for collectors, compact size for bookshelf or vanity decor.
Authenticity Indicators
Likely a mass-produced giftware item from the 90s. Confidence in origin is high, though it lacks high-end porcelain hallmarks like those from Lladro or Meissen.
Flaws to Note
Significant dust accumulation in detail areas (needs deep cleaning), minor fading of the paint/finish, and slight discoloration on the bottom rim of the base.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay, Etsy (if 20+ years old), or Facebook Marketplace. Better as an 'add-on' item or sold in a bundle with other cherub decor.
Selling Tips
Thoroughly clean with a soft toothbrush to remove dust from wings and horse mane. Use keywords like 'Angelcore,' 'Victorian Style,' 'Nursery Decor,' and 'Shabby Chic.' Price competitively as these are common in thrift stores.
