Large pair of 19th century English Staffordshire bisque porcelain figurines in the Romantic style of a young boy and young girl. The girl carries two spouted buckets, wears a lavender rose trimmed skirt, laced bodice, light blue puffed sleeves, and standing on a green foliate base trimmed in gold. The boy wears rolled up pink trousers and blue shirt with flower trim and tan sash, carrying two buckets and standing on a matching green foliate base with gold trim. Note the 19th century detail in the faces, the trim of the outfits, and the finely textured rendering in the bisque porcelain. Both are marked on the bottom with the stylized knot mark used by early English manufacturers in the Staffordshire region. Rarest of all, both of these figural pieces are in mint condition, almost unheard of for pieces of this age still on the open market. They are both large, standing a full 18" high on bases which are approximately 5.5" in diameter. Excellent examples of early porcelain artistry in Europe. rb
