Antique
« on: April 21, 2013, 04:43:16 pm »
I have what I believe to be is an antique.  I have no idea what it is.  I think it is made of ceramic. It is of a man and a lady sitting.  The man is helping the lady up from sitting.  They are dress in what it looks to be 1600's clothing.  They look french.  It looks to be hand painted and hand painted with gold accents on it.  On the bottom it is marked with a golden C with leaves before and after it and under that has the word L'AMOUR, also in gold 5017B and COVENTRY Made in U.S.A. with a circle around it.  I have uploaded pictures as well.  Can someone please help me identify what this might be and what year maybe its from, any other information, etc. ?  Sorry if this is in the wrong post area, I am new to this. Thank you for your time.


*****SORRY FOR THE ADDITIONAL POST, WAS HAVING COMPUTER PROBLEMS.******

Coventry Ware Inc. operated from the 30`s to sometime in the 60`s !!  5017B is the style number of this piece,, may have made several different styles !! L`Amour is the name of the piece !!  While not antique yet,, it is a nice little vintage collectable !!
