A particularly attractive and scarce Giuseppe Armani “Spencer” figurine, reference 1332P, produced by Florence Sculture d'Arte in Italy in 1999.
This is the strict Limited Edition version of only 500 pieces worldwide, with this example individually numbered:
256 / 500
Spencer depicts an elegant fashionable lady in a long softly textured pink dress, wearing a contrasting green and cream cloche-style hat and carrying a handbag. Delicate applied roses and foliage decorate the figure, while the characteristic elongated pose and beautifully modelled face give her the unmistakable elegance associated with Giuseppe Armani's work.
The figure stands approximately 31 cm / 12.25 inches tall on its original dark wooden display plinth.
Importantly, this example retains its original Florence shipping/presentation box, which confirms:
DAMA CON BORSETTA
SPENCER
1332P
Made in Italy
Limited Edition 256/500
“Dama con Borsetta” translates simply as “Lady with Handbag.”
The porcelain base itself carries the Giuseppe Armani signature, Florence markings, ©1999 FLORENCE, and the hand-applied 256/500 limited-edition number. The wooden plinth retains its original Florence Giuseppe Armani labels and UK specialist china retailer label.
Independent references also identify Spencer 1332 at approximately 12.25 inches tall.
Excellent used vintage condition.
The figurine has been carefully stored for a number of years and has been closely inspected.
No chips, cracks, breaks or repairs noted, including the particularly vulnerable applied flowers and foliage.
Only very slight age/storage-related wear is present.
The wooden plinth has minor surface/storage marks consistent with age.
The original box is included and naturally shows considerable storage wear, creasing, marks and distortion from age. The original identification and limited-edition labels remain present and readable.
Please study all photographs carefully as they form an important part of the description.
The P suffix matters on this one. The standard Spencer is also documented as 1332C, whereas your original packaging and the figure itself establish this example as 1332P, Limited Edition 256/500. A specialist retailer currently lists the standard 1332C Spencer at a substantially higher retail price, although that should not be confused with achievable second-hand value.
