Hi All, i need help to identify this nice scandi. figurine (possibly swedish), signed on the base:





Thanks Kevin

Hungarian and it is attributed to Margit Kovács

Congratulations!

Ive searched her loads today, and some of her work is quite beautiful with a lovely folk style, some a bit crazy too. But her work is really warming to me, and thank you - Im very glad to have her for £2.99....

I dont have a clue as to when this was made? I cant find anything about it apart from the fact that they have a scribed KM and a "made in hungary" stamp on the base.....

I bought this lovely girl ages ago and still haven't determined who made her

I now am fairly sure of the maker of these figurines

Gyula Kőfalvi

the mark isn't the same as your latest bargain

I visited the Magit Kovaks museum near budapest last year have got a book somwher but can't find it for the moment

First post new to this forum. While doing a search for Margit Kovacs, came across a figurine on the large Italian auction site - Kunst pottery.
Does anyone have a piece with Margit Kovacs's signature? I have a jug and a plate that are signed Margit and both seem similar to her style of ceramics. thanks

Hi - if you go to the first page of this thread and half way down Ive posted a photo of my piece with signature K M.......dont know if she signed any other way as its very hard to find info on web.
