Here is a rare and wonderful 18th century Dutch delft sculpture of a cow with a milk maid seated underneath her. The base below the cow also has some flowers and what appears to be little frog (jumping around). The sculpture is rather primitive in style, form and workmanship. As you probably are aware if you?re looking at this piece ? the construction was done by individually hand molding in clay each decorative piece which over time may show the seam where that piece was attached. That is evident here and there on this very early sculpture. One of the cow?s horns has a chip off of the very tip. Around the horns, ears and utter there is a different glaze or what appears to be unglazed ? but I am quite sure that this was a form of color for that area. There is some scuffing and enamel loss around her snout. And as would be expected there is some chipped glaze here and there. But all in all this rare early sculpture is in very very good condition - I fell that it is fabulous for its age. Once again ? this is a rare, early, primitive, Dutch, Delft Sculpture. Quite the collectible item! It measures 8 ½? at widest x 7 5/8? at highest x 4 ¾? at deepest.
