Hi Jorge,

Wonderful find! I googled "Peggy's Nao catalogue" and was able to do a search to find "Henpecked". She does look like my figurine and I was thrilled to have a name for her. I am wondering though, my figurine has a very smooth edge to the brim of her hat and the one in the catalogue seems to have a somewhat more ragged edge. Is this just the photograph?

I have scanned a picture of the base and will send it to you via your email as I do not know how to attach it to this discussion board. I tried several times and different angles to take a picture of the base but each time the light bounced and obliterated any distingushable picture. The scan is not great but will give you the general idea. It will be large in hopes that you can see detail. I saw the exact same mark on the Lladro website under their FAQ. If you scroll down under FAQ there are two rows of six marks, the one on the bottom of my figurine is the third mark from the left on the second row.

Do you know any more about her? The year she was first created? Identification of the scuptor? I am also curious about her value although I have no desire to part with her. My aunt knew about my "rural bones", my husband is a farmer, and we live on the Canadian Prairies so this little lady is quite welcome in our home.

On Peggy's most interesting website I read about Nao and Lladro. I do not see any Nao marks on my figurine. What do you think this means? What an interesting world you and Peggy must enjoy among these wonderful works of art.

Thanks again for any information you are able to share with me. I do realize you have much more important demands on your time. I do so thank you for taking the time to enrich my learning.

Kindest regards,
Fran
