A fine example of the high art of the famous French porcelain manufacturer.
 
The marvellous meticulous craftsmanship has made Vion Baury''s work the object of intense scrutiny by collectors around the world.

Jean Guillet established a porcelain factory on the Rue Paradis-Poissonničre in France around 1845. He mainly produced bisque figurines, which were of very high quality. Its chief modeller was Charles Baury, who later, together with Desiree Vion, took control of the factory and it became known as Vion and Baury, and in 1875 production was moved to Choisy-le-Roi. Both factories won several medals at world exhibitions.
