Vintage Wooden Shepherd w Lantern possibly ANRI Kuolt Ulrich Bernardi Germany

Description: This is a vintage nativity figure of a shepherd carrying his hat and lantern. Hand carved, hand painted wood. Stamped on bottom "Made in West Germany." Possibly made by ANRI, artist Karl Kuolt, but NOT marked as such. Painted in a matte finish, tunic of green with a brown cloak, brown hair, gold metallic paint on the lantern. The style of the face matches ANRI style but I couldn't find photographic proof of this type of shepherd. He's about 5.5 inches tall. He needs some "TLC"- please note multiple paint chips. I'm not a restorer, so I don't dare try to fix him since he might be an antique or he could be mass produced by ANRI (this company still makes nativity figurines). Visit Dolfi.com for more information and here is other information about this style:Karl Kuolt: Born on April 3rd, 1878 in Schachingen, Germany. He was a pupil of the Munich School of Art, and from 1910 thru 1924 at the Munich Academy. The world-famous ANRI crib figurines bearing his name are an outstanding example of his art. The Original Prof. Karl Kuolt nativity comes in two sizes: 12,5cm / 5″ and 15cm / 6″. The smaller size is only available in plain Linden wood, the large one comes colored. Hand carved in Linden wood – each piece is lovingly hand painted in special water colors by ANRI’s skilled artist.
