| The Bow factory was founded in 1744 and closed in 1765 but before they did in that short period they made some of the most beautiful and desirable porcelain figures England has produced. Here is a wonderful example of the work of that great factory. A Pair of Recumbent Deer with Bocage. Unrestored and in excellent condition. there is a very old repair to the foreleg of one of the deer which does not at all detract from the desirability of these rare figures. In figures of this type and Staffordshire as well damage is usually done to the bocage, the leaves and flowers chip or break away over the years. Not so with this pair of life like creatures. So special and very fine. I would date them to about 1750. | ||
