Large statue
« on: September 22, 2012, 08:59:18 pm »
This is the last of what was given to me... It really represents my aunt well; she loved nature/birds and all her nieces and nephews. See didn't have any kids of her own so she spoiled us all....She was a wonderful women.... I miss her deeply...

It only has one mark on it and i think it says "Stella". I cant seem to find anything on it at all. VERY heavy!

Your lady is one of a set of four.........The Four Seasons, by Etienne Alexandre Stella  (1850 - 1886) ;)

If she is 'for real' you may have quite the treasure on your hands.....
