The following are porcelain figurines of children designed for Meissen by Konrad Hentschel around 1905.
In their Art Nouveau manner, they were genuinely refreshing compared to the "old" porcelain figures produced by
Meissen thruout 19th century. Note the realistic clothing. The kids are dressed for playing, and well show the
child fashion before 1910.
These figures became an instant success for Meissen resulting in on and off production thruout 20th century.
They also inspired other artists who worked for Meissen, to create their own Art Nouveau children figurines.
The value of each figure depends on condition, age and rarity. The average is about $1,000.
