Figure
Flat-backed earthenware figure of a lass (a pair with sailor AAA6065) and intended to stand on a mantlepiece or shelf. Her stance suggests that she is dancing and waving her hat. She wears a flower-sprigged petticoat under a pink overskirt, a blue bodice and a red shawl. The white base is extended to suppport the figure who has boxes and bales piled up on her left. A small spring of painted flowers is moulded on to the base at her feet.
