Nice Old Carved Marble Stone Fruit Fig handmade fish with some loss of paint

with some loss of paint and assorted scuff marks

Very realistic looking

perhaps as if to signify the heavy weight of the puritanical--in many senses

There is a fine hairline surface crack to the right of her mouth

made for the New York Wold’s Fair as an advertising giveaway for Bromo-Selzer

Nice Old Carved Marble Stone Fruit Fig handmade fish with some loss of paintI happened upon this lovely and very believable old stone fruit fig this week and it seemed like just the right moment for it a symbol of many good things, including unity and prosperity! I'll never tire of stone fruit but am picky about the pieces I like, and this is as nice a fig as I've seen. 3" t x 2 1 8" w and in very good condition.
