Default Murano Figurine

I was hoping someone might be able to estimate the value of a piece I inherited. I have been told it is the work of the work of Napoleone Martinuzzi circa 1930, but I am not sure.

Thanks in advance!

A very similar style piece was posted a few years ago,here:

The design and style is generally called blackamoor.

To me the skirt and base look more contemporary, does it have any signatures or labels?

Thank you for the link to the previous thread, very helpful!

Unfortunately there are no labels or signatures to my knowledge.

The piece measures 10.5"T x 5"W (at base of dress). Here is another photo from the back.
