Description
Minton Pierced Pigeon Centre Piece. The moulding on this piece is so precise. This actual piece is slightly more delicate than the one's produced later. We believe that this piece is one of the first to be produced, hence the colourway in the centre of the bowl. I have yet to see another one with this beautiful green interior. The pigeons too, are beautifully painted.

(Clodion was a French sculptor whose works represent the quintessence of the Rococo style. Born 1738 died 1814 Paris.)
