What does this mean?

Dear Darla,

Thank you for your request and your patience. The apprised object is a porcelain figurine made by the famous German porcelain manufacturer Meissen in Saxony. The figurine depicts a mother with her two children. Under the bottom, we see the model number S 166 and on the socle the Meissen sword hallmark. This figurine was designed 1900 by Paul HELMIG (1859-1939).
Sadly this rare piece is in a damaged condition. The toes of the mother and the hand are chipped.
An estimation would be between 500 to 1.000 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.

With best regards,
Georg
