Royal Dux porcelain has been produced in Duchkov, Czech Republic, since 1853. The company was founded by Eduard Eichler, who was inspired by the renowned porcelain factories of Meissen and Dresden. The company's name, "Dux," comes from the Latin word for "Duke," a title held by Eichler's father-in-law.
Initially, the company produced simple white tableware but soon began to experiment with color and decorative techniques. In the 1870s, Royal Dux shifted its focus to producing figurines, which became the company's mainstay by the early 20th century. Today, Royal Dux figurines are highly sought after by collectors, and the company continues to produce both porcelain tableware and figurines.
This figurine is in excellent condition, showcasing a beautiful balance of colors on the dress, with soft undertones characteristic of the Bohemian school of porcelain craftsmanship. The base features a distinctive pink clay stamp with the letter “E,” indicating it was made in the late 19th century.
