FAQs

Biscuit porcelain, or bisque, refers to unglazed ceramic fired once to create a matte, marble-like surface, popularised by the Derby porcelain factory in the late 18th century during the Neoclassical period.

Craftsmen cast delicate details in press-moulds using soft-paste porcelain clay, assembly-joining individual elements before firing the piece without glaze to preserve crisp, sculpted details.

Authentic 18th-century Derby pieces typically feature fine modelling with incised model numbers or factory marks on the base, alongside a soft, smooth texture unique to unglazed soft-paste porcelain.

Position the sculpture on a dark wood mantelpiece, inside a glass display cabinet, or on a side table where light highlights its sculptural details against a contrasting backdrop.

Dust unglazed porcelain regularly using a soft, dry artists brush, avoiding liquid cleaners or harsh chemicals that could soak into the porous surface and cause discolouration.
