I was in a local charity shop today and spotted this beauty up on a high shelf. I'm not sure what exact goddess she is but I'd be happy to hear what everyone thinks here on CW! She has a really nice green agate(I think?) base and she's certainly of weighty and decent quality and has a wreath of flowers around her wrist and seems to be in a really thoughtful pose.
There's a signature on the bottom of the base that reads 'Camova' or possibly 'C Damova' and Google searches on that haven't brought up o anything really relevant so I'm curious as to what this might mean too.
Also, I've noticed my pictures coming out sideways on CW since switching browser, so if this goddess comes out like so I apologise (I can't work out how to change that either!) :/
Cost €5 (£4.56/$5.82)
Gorgeous dancing goddess, congratulations on finding another regally lovely statue
Thank you Six-0-one and yes I just googled Canova and I can see it! Thanks so much for your help :)

Wow Lauren, you must now be the goddess of finding goddesses.
She is lovely and not something we would ever find in an op shop here in Aus.
