    My eyes tell me it`s Royal Dux, but the base tells me otherwise, possibly early Capo Dimonte, around 1900 or so ?

      Is she porcelain ? Looks more like a resin hard to tell by photo. Very beautiful . Stamp to my eyes looks like a look a like stamp to mimic Capo Dimonte. Hopefully someone will be able to tell for sure for you .

      not resin, I know my porcelain, like I said, it looks all Royal Dux but obviously not. Too good to be a copy or mimic.

      One other thing, the square holes to the left rear suggests a date around 1900 / 1910

      Just asking photo's are sometimes hard to tell vs holding the piece . I don't see any square holes ?

      During the last quarter of the 1800's Ernst Bohne Söhne, Thuringia liked to use crown N marks similar to yours.
