A fun decorative figurine of a dancing full-figured ballerina in the en Avant position with both arms in the forward position. I have been unable to exactly identify its provenance but it dates to late 1960s/70s in Scandinavia perhaps Sweden. The ballerina stands on a circular wooden plinth base and is made from synthetic custom molded resin. Hand-painted and wearing a white leotard with a hairband holding back her thick curly hair with fun pursed lips. Her eye makeup is particular striking and fun highlighting her blue eyes. She looks as though she's practicing in a ballet class for a future performance. In good vintage condition with some wear to be wooden base.
The resin is a little uneven at the back but this looks as though it occurred during the making of the piece because there is no colour difference which you would expect if it was a repair. I only noticed it when I was photographing it up close
Similar in style to Beryl Cook or Fernando Botero artwork
I also have another two featured on the Retro Living website.
