This is a very attractive Santon doll from the Provence region in France. A fisherman carrying a basket of of fish as well as a fish in his hand. There is a net around his neck. He must have caught his fish in the mediterranean sea! He is for the most part made of pottery/clay, his arms are partly made of wire to make them bend. The fish are also made of clay. Straw basket. Very good condition apart from a few light brown stains on his striped blouse. Size 23 cm/9 inches. Not signed, no makers name. But he is a quality doll.
