1982 Presidents Club Albee Award Figurine. Measures 7" in height. Woman wearing a blue dress sitting in a chair. Excellent condition. Does not come with box.
This 1982 Albee Award figurine is a distinguished piece of corporate history from the Avon Presidents Club. Standing seven inches tall, the porcelain figure depicts a woman in an elegant, late 19th-century blue dress, seated thoughtfully in a classical armchair. These figurines were commissioned as exclusive awards to honor top-achieving representatives, named after Persis Foster Eames Albee, the very first "Avon Lady." The 1982 edition is particularly noted for its rich blue palette and the detailed sculpting of the Victorian-era fashion, from the delicate ruffles to the poise of her seated silhouette.
As a "theatrical curiosity," this award transcends its corporate origins, serving as a stately piece of historical costume art for a library or a vanity. It fits beautifully within a Dark Academia or traditional Victorian-inspired interior, offering a touch of 19th-century academic gravitas. The figurine is in excellent condition, with the porcelain remaining crisp and the hand-painted blue tones vibrant and even. While it does not come with its original box, the piece has been remarkably well-preserved, free of any chips or surface wear. It is a soulful find for collectors of Albee Awards, Avon history, or those looking to add a touch of timeless feminine elegance to their home.
