'THE GYPSIES': A CHARLES VYSE EARTHENWARE FIGURE GROUP DATED 1925

the couple modelled with their infant child standing on a square flagstone base, CV monogram, 1925 and Chelsea painted in blue. minor restoration and chips.

Her right thumb and index figer and the part of the basket they touch were chipped and restored back - the index finger has since been chipped completely away. There is a very tiny chip to the tip of her middle finger; some chips and loses to the petals of the flowers he is holding; and a minor 1/8-in. flat chip to the bottom edge of the front of the base.
