We offer a stupendous breathtaking neo-classical sculture in blanc sur blanc bisque. Reminiscent of the late 18th century and early 19th century works of Sevres this item bears a crowned mark as indicated. Searches through various reference texts have not been productive. Hence I am listing this as Sevres pattern.
The scene consists of three women crowning another with flowers in a typical neo-classical mode. There is also a winged cupid at the feet of the woman being crowned. The faces and the bodis are modeled in an impecable fashion of beauty.
The greeen and gold painted base with gold coloured swags is integral with the statues.
Unfortunately during the past 150 to 200 years the item has not remained unscatheded. One figure was decapitated sometime diuring the life of this object and the has been reglued, several fingers appear to have been reattached and a wiong of the cupid appears to have been reattached. There is also a relatively insignificant firing crack in the base. Irrespective, the item is absolutely magnificent.
