Antique candy container representing a Pierrot in the Art Deco style

This colorful bibelot was assembled in Italy during the Twenties. It has a perfect bisque head provided by Wilhelm Goebel made out of mold #120. The body is paper maché with impeccable bisque lower arms. It is factory originally dressed in yellow silk satin with black pompons and taffetas black bonnet. It shows a hand written wish in Italian that reads « aunt Lilla and uncle Lillo to the good looking Lida », evidently from a family fond of Ls.
