[b]Porzellanmanufaktur Scheibe-Alsbach[/b] from the town of [i]Scheibe-Alsbach[/i] in Thuringia, Germany. The series this figure comes from is merely named [i]French Military[/i] (no names per figure) and is attributed to sculptor/designer [i]Prof. Felix Zeh[/i].

Your figure was made during the late 1960s/early 1970 when the East German regime was starting to lose their marbles … color schemes were dropped in favor of what paint / colors were left (shortages due to reduced oil imports) and molds were literally used “pop-til-drop” (no repairs, insufficient drying times, massive loss in detail).

Especially the horse looks as if it’s going to go call quits any minute. A genuine piece, but far from being a perfect example of their usual craftmanship.
