Description from the seller

### Royal Dux Bohemia – Antique porcelain group sculpture – Two hunting dogs with hare – Model 2320 – Circa 1900–1920

Beautiful and finely executed antique porcelain group sculpture by the renowned Bohemian porcelain manufacturer Royal Dux.

This impressive sculpture shows two realistically formed hunting dogs beside a lying hare, placed on a richly detailed, realistically modeled base.

The composition stands out for the exceptionally careful modeling of the animals. The anatomical proportions, characteristic facial expressions, refined coat textures, and natural poses are worked out with great attention.

The subtle polychrome painting in soft cream-colored, brown, and greenish tones enhances the realistic appearance. Both dogs wear beautifully finished collars with gold-colored accents.

### Origin and identification

The sculpture was produced by Royal Dux Porzellan-Manufaktur, based in Dux (now Duchcov), Bohemia.

On the underside is the characteristic triangular Royal Dux factory mark, as well as the original, model number 2320 pressed into the porcelain.

The stylistic features indicate manufacture in the early 20th century, likely circa 1900–1920.

### Dimensions
- Length: approx. 35 cm
- Height: approx. 26 cm
- Model number: 2320
- Material: Painted porcelain

### Condition

### Notable features

A characteristic example of the figurative porcelain art for which Royal Dux is internationally renowned.

A special piece for lovers of antique porcelain, historical hunting scenes, and Bohemian craftsmanship.
