Rare Large Porcelain Sitting Woman Figurine by Welsh Sculptor Gillian Still c1950s
A rare and deeply collectible large porcelain figurine by Gillian Still, the celebrated Welsh sculptor, dating from the 1950s. The piece depicts a sitting woman in traditional Welsh costume, rendered in multicoloured glazes with an expressive, characterful face that brings the figure vividly to life. Delicately modelled throughout, this is a work of genuine artistic merit.
Gillian Still has not worked for many years, and her pieces are rarely found for sale — making this a truly unique opportunity for collectors of Welsh fine art, studio ceramics, or figurative sculpture. The piece is signed by the artist on the base, confirming its authenticity.
Please note: the left thumb is missing, which is reflected in the price. All colours remain sharp with no fading, and there is no other damage.
