This pair of Chinese figures, crafted by the Chelsea Porcelain Manufactory between 1747 and 1757, exemplifies the popular Chinoiserie style of the 18th century. The figures, adorned in elaborate hats and long robes, sit on rocky outcrops with floral details, demonstrating the fascination with East Asian aesthetics in Europe during this period. These small porcelain figures, measuring just over four inches tall, showcase the delicate craftsmanship of Chelsea porcelain, known for its intricate details and vibrant colors. These figures are now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s collection in New York.
