Product Description

Elevate your collection with a piece of timeless Italian artistry: the exquisite Giuseppe Armani "Lady Rider" figurine. Crafted in 1987 by the renowned Florentine sculptor Giuseppe Armani, this sophisticated sculpture captures the elegance and confident spirit of the equestrian world in stunning detail.

Perfect for the discerning vintage collector of fine Capodimonte and Florentine porcelain, this piece is an iconic representation of Armani's celebrated "My Fair Ladies" collection, renowned for its fluid lines and realistic features.

Key Features for the Collector

• Sculptural Excellence: The figurine portrays a graceful woman dressed in a classic riding habit, complete with a tailored double-breasted jacket with tails, an elegant bow-tie at the neck, and a stylish bowler hat. Her long skirt flows beautifully, and a riding crop is held delicately in her hand, embodying the poise and sophistication of a true lady.

• Signature Finish: Rendered primarily in a pristine matte white bisque finish (often referred to as Capodimonte style or 'F' finish), the subtle texture highlights the masterful detailing of the fabric folds and the refined features of her face. A touch of color graces her lips, adding a striking contrast and lifelike quality.

• Authenticity: Signed by the artist, Giuseppe Armani, and bearing the impressed Florence Sculture d'Arte mark (copyrighted 1987 Florence), this is a guaranteed authentic, vintage Italian collectible.

• Investment Appeal: As a retired piece from a celebrated artist who passed in 2006, Armani figurines are increasingly sought after by collectors, solidifying their status as valuable additions to any art collection.
