Description

On the Limerick to Kerry border and beyond Newcastle West lies the village of Dromcollogher, the centre for the production of the finest Irish porcelain. It is a family-run business, which originated in Dresden in Germany. The porcelain is delicately handcrafted into intricate figurines, which are popular worldwide. In the factory you can see how the figurines are made, from the beginning of the process right through to the finished product.


This delightful figurine called 'Mimi' was handmade in the Irish Dresden factory. She stands 7" tall in a pretty pink and white tutu.  She has pink shoes and ribbons matching a pink ribbon in her hair.  The detailing of her face is especially nice. 


She is sure to grace anyone's Dresden collection. She is in mint condition
