Hutschenreuther Selb Porcelain Cherub / Putto Playing Double Flute – Gilded Instrument – Mid-Century

Bring home a touch of classic European charm with this authentic Hutschenreuther Selb Kunstabteilung (Art Department) porcelain figurine, crafted in Germany circa 1950s1960s.

This delightful putto (cherub/angel) is seated on a soft cloud-form base, playing a double flute/double horn highlighted in real gold gilt. The high-gloss blanc-de-chine glaze reflects the signature quality of Hutschenreuthers Art Department line, and the original factory paper label remains on the underside, adding collectability and provenance.

Renowned Hutschenreuther sculptor Karl Tutter designed many of these musician cherubs, and the lively modelling and serene face strongly recall his work
