    Product number 00.955
    Detail Ivory, glazed
    Design Franz Anton Bustelli, approx. 1757
    Height 13 cm

    He owes his fame to Franz Anton Bustelli’s artful expression of his character. However, exquisite figures like this Chinese woman are not just an aesthetic masterpiece, but also point to sophisticated engineering techniques. Like most of Bustelli’s figures, she does not need additional support during the firing process. The master of porcelain sculpture balanced many complex pieces as early as the design stage so that the base, the rocaille or the design of the clothing prevented them from collapsing.
