VERY RARE ORIGINAL PAIR Sevres children figure groups, C. 1754. SUPERB CONDITION

  
A VERY RARE and VERY FINELY modelled ORIGINAL PAIR of Sevres biscuit porcelain figure groups of children. Both pieces fully marked with the Sevres interlaced incised marks and the date letter'B' in between. There is something symbolic about these, as there are 2 girls and one boy on one, and 2 boys and one girl on the other. Each seems to have a sleeping girl and boy.

Note how beautifully that bending boy is modelled. BOTH OF THESE INCREDABLY VULNERABLE PIECES HAVE REMAINED IN ALMOST PREFECT CONDITION. On the 2 girls group, there is only a tiny piece restuck on the end of her piece of cloth. End of fingers of one hand missing. These very minor faults are not seen unless looked at VERY closely.

NO RESTORATION TO EITHER GROUP. SIZE:- 8 ins across by 5 1/2 ins wide by 6 ins high.
