BOLDOOT PRAYER MAN CROWN TOP, c. Pre 1939
Prior to 1939, the Boldoot Perfume Company in the Netherlands sold a number of interesting porcelain containers filled with their perfumes.

He is dressed in a black and red suit with white shirt, and is wearing a black and red cap. The piece has an unusual glazed and bisque finish. The Prayer Man has a companion, The Prayer Lady, listed separately - see my other listing P2342. The Prayer Man is very desirable and is seldom found.
