Beautiful Antique Royal Dux Porcelain Figurine Depicting a Lady Holding a Jug.

1900 - 1920
Description

Royal Dux porcelain is a type of porcelain that has been produced in Duchcov, Czech Republic since 1853. The company was founded by Eduard Eichler, who was inspired by the porcelain factories of Meissen and Dresden. The name of the company comes from the Latin word "Duke", the title of Eichler's father-in-law.

At the beginning of its activity the company produced simple white tableware, but soon began to experiment with colour and decoration. In the 1870s Royal Dux began to produce figurines, and by the beginning of the XX century they became the main focus of the company. Today, Royal Dux statuettes are a collector's item, and the company continues its activity, producing both porcelain tableware and statuettes.

Speaking of porcelain, Czechoslovakia is a country with a rich history. For many centuries this country has been famous for its high quality and beautiful porcelain.

The history of Czechoslovak porcelain dates back to the early 18th century, when the first porcelain factory was founded in the town of Ceske Budejovice. At the time, porcelain was a very new and innovative material, and the Czechoslovaks quickly adopted it. Over the next few decades, several more porcelain factories were opened throughout the country, and soon Czechoslovak porcelain became world-renowned for its quality and craftsmanship.

Today, Czechoslovak porcelain is still highly valued by collectors and connoisseurs around the world. With its beautiful design and impeccable quality, Czechoslovak porcelain remains one of the most sought-after types of porcelain.

The figurine is in excellent condition. Beautiful balance of the colour of the dress with soft undertones typical of the Bohemian school of porcelain craftsmanship.

The base has a characteristic pink clay stamp with the letter "E", probably from the beginning of the 20th century.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Royal Dux porcelain originates from Duchcov in Bohemia, established during the mid-19th century and recognised for Art Nouveau and classical statuettes. These pieces typically depict mythological figures, water carriers, or classical subjects crafted with muted glazes and gilded highlights.

Royal Dux figures were predominantly crafted using unglazed or low-sheen bisque porcelain. Soft matte enamels in tones of dusty pink, ivory, and brown were applied, often accentuated with hand-painted gold leaf.

Authentic pieces feature an applied, raised pink porcelain triangle mark on the base, which was applied during production. This mark typically contains the text Royal Dux Bohemia around an acorn motif, accompanied by impressed model and shape numbers.

Placing a classical porcelain figure on a fireplace mantelpiece, console table, or inside a glass display cabinet creates a refined focal point. Positioned against deep wall colours or alongside modern minimalist decor, the classical form offers a sophisticated aesthetic contrast.

Dust the porcelain object regularly using a dry, soft camel-hair brush to clean small crevices without risking abrasion. Avoid using water, liquid detergents, or chemical solvents, as moisture can compromise delicate painted surface enamels and gilded details.
