Remarkable Art Déco Goldscheider ceramics figurine of the 1930s Standing young revue dancer with pageboy hairstyle, taking a step forward. At the same time she lifts the bellflower-shaped hem of her short purple dress with a fur collar with both hands. A large tuft of grass supports the figure on the left leg. On a black, diamond-shaped base. This figure also exists as a group of two, as the 'Dolly Sisters' were actually a pair of twins. There is also a group of four, an extremely rare and elaborate version by the Goldscheider company as a special creation. The 'Dolly Sisters' Rosie Dolly (1892 - 1970) and Jenny Dolly (1892 - 1941), known professionally as (the) Dolly Sisters, were Hungarian-American identical twin dancers, singers and actresses, popular in vaudeville and theatre during the 1910s and 1920s. Both sisters also appeared in two silent films.
