This charming porcelain figurine captures the grace of a ballerina, styled as an elegant lady delicately holding a fan. Crafted around 1970, this Wallendorf Ballerina Porcelain Figurine stands about 6 inches tall, 6 inches wide, and 4 inches long. With its gentle pastel colors and golden slippers, the figurine radiates the refined beauty and attention to detail you’d expect from fine German craftsmanship. The soft, flowing dress and the serene, almost shy expression on the figurine’s face really make it stand out as a piece of art from a different era. Even after all these years, it’s in near-mint condition, which is pretty rare for something over 50 years old—just imagine the quiet elegance it could bring to a bookshelf, curio cabinet, or dresser.
Wallendorf is a well-known German porcelain manufacturer that dates back hundreds of years, making collectibles that are recognized for elegant artistry and top-notch workmanship. They’re especially beloved for their figurines depicting classic European scenes—ladies, ballet dancers, children, even animals—each one carefully hand-painted. In the post-war years and into the 1970s, Wallendorf continued making collectible figurines like this one, with their signature delicate faces, smooth lines, and fine detailing. For collectors and everyday folks who love unique finds, owning a Wallendorf piece isn’t just about having a pretty figure; it’s about holding on to a bit of European history and tradition. Pieces like this ballerina aren’t made in the same way anymore, so finding one in such great condition from 1970 is a rare treat.
