This charming pair of 19th-century porcelain busts depicts young members of the French Bourbon family, adorned with delicate bonnets and classical clothing. Each piece bears the Vienna beehive mark, linking these beautifully detailed busts to the renowned Austrian porcelain tradition. Measuring 3 inches in height and 2-1/4 inches in width, these petite figures are perfect for collectors of antique European porcelain or French royal memorabilia.
Each bust is finely crafted, with carefully hand-painted features and soft pastel colors that capture the innocence and elegance of these royal children. Due to their age, there are some chips on the flower petals and feathers of the bonnet, as shown in the photos, but these minor imperfections do not detract from their historical charm.
These porcelain busts are created in the Rococo Revival style, which was popular in the 19th century. This style is characterized by elaborate details, soft colors, and a romantic elegance often seen in decorative arts portraying European aristocracy. The delicate features, fine detailing, and naturalistic elements—like flowers and feathers on the bonnet—reflect Rococo's influence on revival styles. less
